Hechi's industrial output value reaches 64.4b yuan

Over the last year, Hechi has implemented actions to cultivate and grow its manufacturing industry clusters, and has achieved remarkable results.

Early last year, Hechi proposed to carry out actions to multiply existing leading industries, new industries, and major industrial firms. It also aimed to improve park development and industrial investment.

Hechi also aimed to build a "2 + 5 + N" industrial system. This refers to the cultivation and growth of its two 100-billion-yuan industries (non-ferrous metals and cocoon silk); its five 10-billion-yuan industries (food, household goods, building materials, new chemical, and pharmaceutical); and the cultivation and development of new energy and other emerging industrial clusters.

To achieve its goals, the city accelerated the creation of a new metal materials pilot zone, and it actively laid out high-end products in the new materials industry chain, such as lithium iron phosphate and printed circuit boards (PCB).

These efforts have led to significant results in the city's initiatives to multiply its industries. The total output value of Hechi's major industrial firms reached 64.4 billion yuan ($9.60 billion) in 2022, an increase of 12 percent year-on-year. While Hechi's industrial investment reached 11.2 billion yuan, an increase of 32.7 percent year-on-year.
