Our Managing Director, Craig Fallshaw, recently spent three days at CPHI (Convention on Pharmaceutical Ingredients) China, one of the world’s largest pharmaceutical and nutraceutical ingredient trade shows. The trip has set CMG up with an exciting pipeline of innovation for the year ahead.
Representing Australia on the World Stage
We were proud to spend time at the Australian Pavilion, hosted by Complementary Medicines Australia (CMA), connecting with fellow Australian brands and suppliers navigating the same fast-moving global ingredient landscape. It’s this kind of collaboration — Australian companies working together rather than in silos — that helps our whole industry move faster and smarter.
A Landmark Partnership with Melrose
One of the standout outcomes of the trip was a new clinical trial partnership with Melrose, one of Australia’s largest sellers of NMN products. Together, we’re investigating next-generation liposomal berberine technology to bring genuinely differentiated, science-backed products to market — the kind of innovation that helps our clients stand out on shelf.
First-Mover Access to Longevity Ingredients
CMG is actively working to secure early access to some of the most exciting ingredients in the global longevity space. We’re aiming to give our clients first-to-market advantage as this category takes off.
A Growing Pipeline of Innovation
Beyond longevity, our team met with several leading global suppliers to explore a broad new wave of ingredients spanning sleep, stress support, muscle recovery, metabolism and tissue repair. This is exactly the kind of forward-scanning work CMG does behind the scenes — so that when a promising new ingredient reaches viability, our clients are ready to move on it before the market catches on.
Strengthening Our Supply Network
We also used the trip to deepen relationships with key manufacturing partners, exploring ways to improve supply reliability and lead times — because great ingredients only matter if we can get them to market for our clients, consistently and on time.
What This Means for You
Trips like this are a core part of how CMG stays ahead — scouting the world’s best emerging ingredients, building the right partnerships, and doing the regulatory groundwork early, so our clients can bring innovative, credible, TGA-compliant products to market faster than the competition.
We’re excited about what’s coming — and even more excited to bring it to life with our clients. Contact us now if you’re looking for new innovations in longevity, sleep, stress support, muscle recovery, metabolism and tissue repair.
