It currently has four intelligent production lines with an annual capacity of 300,000 metric tons, directly creating hundreds of jobs and actively driving upstream and downstream enterprises, with its capacity radiating to surrounding areas. Its successful practice provides a reference case for Guizhou in attracting high-end food manufacturing enterprises and promoting green industrial development.

Moving forward, the factory will continue to increase its investment in green technologies and actively expand innovative practices in energy saving and emission reduction. Additionally, the factory plans to open some green technology application scenarios to share its practical experience in smart energy saving and resource recycling with local enterprises.
