The Xinghua Economic Development Zone, located in Xinghua city, East China's Jiangsu province, is continuing to witness the emergence of a new industrial region integrating industry, city and people after three decades of development.
With the goal of becoming a mecca for the health food industry, the zone has actively promoted the diversified development of the sector.
Overall, great efforts have been made to attract a group of major industrial supply chain projects in various key sectors with large investment scale, strong growth drivers and high output benefits.
Among the projects, the new vehicles plant being operated by the zone's Poly Orica (Jiangsu) Mining Machinery was honored as a 2024 Jiangsu Province Major Project.
To improve the business environment further, the zone has set up a dedicated window serving its needs at Xinghua's data bureau, offering snappy approvals and providing assistance and agency services for the entire process of industrial projects.
In terms of support facilities, the Changxing Zhigu Equipment Manufacturing Industrial Park is under construction, providing technology intermediaries, intellectual property and other high-tech services for small and micro innovative enterprises.
Moreover, the new Zhonghua Shigu Area B is projected to be in use by the end of August, which is expected to help accelerate the agglomeration and intensive development of the health foods industry.
In addition, innovation has added new momentum to the zone's development.
A prime example is manufacturer Kerisom Food Biotechnology, which has adopted the international cutting-edge bio-fermentation enzymatic hydrolysis technology and has established nation's first provincial-level enzymatic hydrolysis dairy product engineering center.
Elsewhere, Jiangsu Qiliang Foods has purchased over 20 cutting-edge intelligent production lines, achieving automation and intelligence in the production process.
