On the morning of September 16, the People's Government of Chongyang Town and Shaoguan Shaotang Food Co., Ltd. officially held a signing ceremony for the "Shaotang Pickled Vegetable Processing" project. Representatives from the enterprise and relevant town officials attended the ceremony to formalize the agreement.
The Shaotang pickled vegetable processing project represents a total investment of approximately RMB 5 million. The plan involves establishing a deep-processing facility for agricultural products within the Wujiang District Modern Agricultural Industrial Park, creating a roughly 1,200 square meter processing plant dedicated to pickled vegetables. Once the project reaches stable operations, the company intends to expand the original plant's scale, enhance production automation levels, and improve its commodity logistics and distribution network.
The initiative aims to secure supplies from existing base partners while progressively integrating local vegetable resources. Through standardized deep-processing methods, primary agricultural goods will be transformed into high-value-added prepared foods. This shift is designed to drive the transition of traditional farming toward industrialization, optimizing the local agricultural product structure.
Leveraging steady market demand, the project will utilize multiple sales channels—including short-video e-commerce, community group buying, and livestream marketing—to distribute products to restaurants, canteens, fast-food chains, and hospitality venues across various regions.
Shaoguan Shaotang Food Co., Ltd. is a food production enterprise encompassing agricultural cultivation, technical services, and the processing and sale of agricultural goods. Supported by the agricultural foundation of Chongyang Town in Wujiang District, the company is rooted locally, extends its reach across northern Guangdong, and targets the Greater Bay Area market. The entry of Shaotang Food is expected to create numerous job opportunities, boost income for surrounding growers, broaden sales avenues for agricultural products, and inject substantial new momentum into Chongyang Town's high-quality development.
During the signing ceremony, representatives from Shaotang Food and Chongyang Town officials engaged in in-depth discussions. The company's leadership noted their current monthly vegetable demand is substantial, and with capacity expansion underway, raw material requirements will continue to climb. They expressed optimism about forging deep cooperation with Chongyang Town, citing the park's ample space, prime location near the Chongyang highway interchange, and convenient freight transport. As the first dedicated agricultural processing park in Shaoguan, the site presents significant growth potential.
Chongyang Town officials affirmed their commitment to providing comprehensive support services for the enterprise, pledging proactive responsiveness to business needs and facilitation of promising initiatives. They intend to gradually increase the proportion of locally sourced materials, helping area farmers boost their earnings. Additionally, they welcomed recommendations for other quality enterprises to join Chongyang, aiming to strengthen the local industrial base, achieve mutual benefits, and drive collective prosperity.
This signing represents a key milestone in Chongyang Town's investment attraction efforts and the industrial park's chain extension and supplementation strategy. The arrival of the new enterprise will enhance the park's deep-processing capabilities, promote clustering of upstream and downstream supporting industries, and boost its appeal for further investment and operational efficiency. It also extends the town's agricultural industry chain while elevating the value of local agricultural products. Going forward, Chongyang Town will persist in reinforcing corporate service guarantees to facilitate early project commencement, early production, and early results.
