As the organizer of this promotion conference, Guichuan United efficiently planned and executed the event, assisting Yun’an District in inviting target enterprises to attend. The firm facilitated precise government-enterprise matchmaking and in-depth exchanges, fostering a favorable environment for the signing and implementation of high-quality projects.

Yunan District, Yunfu City, is located in central-western Guangdong, south of the middle reaches of the West River. Situated at a key transportation hub connecting the Pearl River Delta and the Greater Southwest, it is one of Guangdong’s most promising new growth poles.

At the promotion event, Li Jian, Deputy Director of the Standing Committee of the Foshan Municipal People’s Congress, Member of the Standing Committee of the Yunfu Municipal Party Committee, Vice Mayor of Yunfu, and Commander-in-Chief of the Foshan-Yunfu Pairing Assistance Command; Liang Yuli, Secretary of the Yun’an District Party Committee and Secretary of the Party Working Committee of the Yunfu New District (High-Tech Zone); and Tang Dibang, Chairman of the Nanhai District Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, delivered speeches respectively. They sincerely invited entrepreneurs to invest and establish businesses in Yun’an to jointly write a new chapter in Yun’an’s high-quality development.

In recent years, Yun’an has adhered to the Municipal Party Committee’s strategy of “differentiated development.” Leveraging the market effects of “integration with the Greater Bay Area,” it has fully utilized its advantages in natural resources, Xijiang River shipping, and agricultural and aquaculture foundations. This has driven the transformation and upgrading of traditional manufacturing sectors such as building materials and chemicals, as well as single-crop agriculture, toward a green economy, circular economy, and “beautiful economy,” thereby revitalizing these industries. As a result, a “3+3” dominant industrial system—comprising traditional sectors like green building materials, green chemicals, and green agriculture, alongside emerging industries such as digital information technology, automotive parts,pharmaceuticals and wellness. This has established a “3+3” dominant industrial system, creating a complementary development dynamic with more developed regions.

In 2022, among the 19 major economic indicators released by Yunfu City, Yun’an ranked first in nine categories. Notably, the growth rate of local general public budget revenue ranked first in the province.

Following extensive pre-event communication and coordination, the investment promotion conference resulted in the signing of eight high-quality projects on-site, covering multiple sectors including new energy, new materials, green chemicals, and green building materials, with a total investment of 4.633 billion yuan.

The newly introduced project by China Energy Engineering Group involves an investment exceeding 10 billion yuan. Meanwhile, enterprises such as China National Building Materials Group—which has been deeply rooted in Yun’an for many years—and the local listed company Huiyun Titanium Industry are also ramping up efforts to increase capital and expand production, demonstrating robust development momentum.

Starting this year, Foshan and Yunfu will enter the fourth phase of their paired assistance program. Foshan and Yunfu complement each other’s strengths, while Nanhai and Yun’an each have their own unique advantages. Taking this promotion conference as an opportunity, the two regions are sure to embark on a new journey of win-win cooperation.

As Yun’an District’s “investment promotion consultant,” GuChuan United will continue to leverage its market-oriented investment promotion strengths to create more opportunities for Yun’an to connect precisely with high-quality enterprises and engage in in-depth exchanges, ensuring that high-quality projects move from “paper” to “reality.”
