Profits should keep growing over the next two years for the Shanghai-based research and development outsourcing company,Sharepoint development, said analyst Wei Du. Du said WuXi is in a better competitive position than its rivals,Software outsourcing company, and China may become a top research outsourcing market for drugmakers in developing countries.

Du said laboratory service revenue should keep growing, while the toxicology service and manufacturing service businesses have good potential over the coming years.
"We see strong potential for growth in WuXi's manufacturing business in the long term, given its reputation and service quality,Software outsourcing service," he wrote.
