GUANGZHOU, China-- Sino Agro Food, Inc. (OTCQB: SIAF, also referred to herein as “SIAF” or
the “Company”) is an integrated, diversified agriculture technology and organic food company
with principal operations as primary producer, processor, and marketer of protein foods in the
People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).
SIAF is delighted to announce the appointment of Dr. Anthony C. Ostrowski as Chief Scientific
Officer to head its R&D and Product Certification Division.
The appointment supports the Company's vision to become a leading sustainable aquaculture
company, fortifying a sound scientific basis for technology development within this area. The
division underpins the creation of a globally-valued SIAF brand of protein food products backed
by the use of sustainable production techniques, scientifically verified proprietary technology,
and industry best management practices.
An accomplished executive and scientist, Dr. Ostrowski brings over 30 years of broad
international experience in the field of aquaculture and affiliated industries. He was principal
investigator on numerous, multi-million dollar federal research projects in the U.S.; directed a
multi-state, multi-institution research consortium; and led the internationally recognized
aquaculture research organization, Oceanic Institute, Hawaii, USA as President and CEO from
2009-2012. Most recently, he was general manager and CEO of Wanshida Ocean Bio-tech, Ltd.,
a Chinese aquaculture R&D firm located in Yangjiang, PRC. Dr. Ostrowski brings a wealth of
expertise and executive management skills to lead SIAF’s sustainability mission in the fast-
paced aquaculture and protein food industries. Dr. Ostrowski will represent SIAF at aquaculture
and food product conferences, and in trade and professional journals.
"SIAF understands the future and is on the cutting edge of an evolution in the aquaculture
industry,” said Ostrowski. “I believe the company’s indoor RAS technology is second to none,
and is a cornerstone of a sound, vertically integrated farm to plate business model that targets
food security, safety, and sustainability. My mandate is to help take the company to the next
level of achievement in both quality and scope, starting with the Zhongshan project. The scale of
Mr. Lee’s vision for the project is unprecedented. There is no better region than China in which
to emphasize the importance of sustainability. I am very grateful for this opportunity to help the
company become a leader in global aquaculture."
R&D and Product Certification Division
The primary mission of the R&D and Certification Division is to underpin the Company’s
products produced at existing aquaculture facilities and the emerging Zhongshan New Prawn
Project with science, accommodating value added lines and branding. The Division aims to
provide a solid foundation for honest and effective brand recognition through research that will

promote innovation, and by implementing a third-party process certification and a product
traceability program based on internationally accepted best practices and management
standards.
Third party certification ensures that SIAF meets global standards in sustainable farming
practices, differentiating the company and its protein products from competitors, furthering the
aim to expand market reach globally. As a member of the Board of the Aquaculture Certification
Council from 2007-2012, Dr. Ostrowski advised on Best Aquaculture Practices, standards and
activities to meet global process certification for shrimp and fish hatcheries, grow-out facilities,
and feed mills, promoting food safety and sustainable production practices that are biologically,
environmentally, and socially responsible.
The Division will be managed as a profit center, with new technologies, products, and services
for sale to domestic and international organizations.
CEO Commentary
CEO Solomon Lee stated, “The Zhongshan New Prawn Project is a model user of sustainable
and holistic, green management practices in one of the most densely urbanized regions of the
world. As far as we know, the project is the largest indoor aquaculture development in the world.
For many reasons, scale is important for our corporate mission; so too is yield and premium
quality, which are driven by best practices. Consistent with our vision to become a leading
vertically integrated and sustainable aquaculture company, we employ the latest technology and
industry qualified personnel. I am confident that Dr. Ostrowski will further our aims, not only
for our company, but also for the broader goal of improving processes to meet the ever
increasing need for healthier food everywhere.”
