Kerry Logistics Network Limited’s joint venture with Hengan International Group Company Limited and Karrion Development Limited is launching a new SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Detection Kit named BandiCheck under the Banitore brand in Hong Kong today to help check the spread of Covid-19 and protect the public.
