Updated: 2020-02-26

More than 600,000 employees returning to work at 2,745 Zhuhai key enterprises had obtained facemasks as of Monday using a dedicated sales platform opened on Feb 19 by Zhuhai Gaoge Pharmaceutical Sales.

Gaoge was entrusted by the Zhuhai Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19) Epidemic Prevention & Control Command Center to ensure anti-epidemic supplies for local mainstay, livelihood, state-owned enterprises and key projects.

An overseas purchase team was established by its parent company, Zhuhai Duty Free Enterprises Group, in late January. The first batch of masks was transported from South Africa to Zhuhai in early February through greenlighted custom clearance.

More than 200 Gaoge employees have volunteered along with the epidemic command center's Material Support Group to inquire about the mask needs of key enterprises.

An online website that is being developed by Gaoge information technology, graphic design, and management staff will soon open to the public. By then the purchase, order confirmation, payment, and logistics process will be further facilitated.

In addition, the first automatic mask production line of Zhuhai Gaoge Medical Technology, a subsidiary of Gree Real Estate in Jinwan District, commenced operation on Feb 21 with a daily capacity of 100,000 masks. Seven more production lines will be fully operational by late March to expand the company's daily output to 800,000 masks.  

For now, seven mask manufacturers in the city are capable of producing over 300,000 masks each day.
