GUANGZHOU, China-- Sino Agro Food, Inc. (OTCQX: SIAF | OSE: SIAF-ME), is an
agricultural technology company focused on high protein food including seafood
and cattle.
Built by Sino Agro Food Inc. in 2014, aquafarm 2 ("AF2") has been awarded
provincial Dragon Head Enterprise ("DHE") status. AF2 is now owned by Tri-way
Industries Ltd. ("TRW"), a Hong Kong based corporation. TRW was spun out from
SIAF in 2017 as a pure aquaculture company, transferring all SIAF's joint
venture aquaculture interests and assets. SIAF holds a 36.6% equity interest in
Tri-way.

Dragon Head Enterprise is a prestigious and increasingly uncommon stature
awarded on the basis of size, financial performance, products, competitiveness,
and influence on societal benefits and positive upstream and downstream
industries. It confers potential benefits in the form of government grants or
financing, tax exemptions, favorable policies, and support of infrastructure and
technology.

DHE status validates Tri-way's A Power Recirculating Aquaculture System
("APRAS"), which the company believes is the leading technology in the world for
indoor raising and harvesting of seafood and shrimp from post larvae through
full growth.
