Company profile

Officially launched in April 2025 in Zhijiang, Yichang, the company is jointly established by four state-backed shareholders: Hubei Grain & Oil Foodstuffs Import & Export Group and Hubei Nongfa Three Gorges Citrus Group (both under Hubei Agricultural Development Group), Zhijiang Jinrunyuan Construction Investment Holding Group, and Wuhan Jiangchen International Trading Co., Ltd. — positioned as Hubei's flagship platform for fruit, especially citrus, going global.

Core business

We focus on Yichang honey mandarins, Zhijiang honey mandarins and Yichang navel oranges, covering the full chain from cultivation, sourcing, grading and washing, packing, cold-chain warehousing, export customs clearance and international logistics. A dual-track strategy serves both established overseas markets — Russia, Vietnam, Thailand, DPRK — and premium domestic supermarket channels.

Export scale

By October 2025, nearly 3 million catties (≈1,500 tonnes) had been shipped overseas with 2.5 million catties (≈1,250 tonnes) in standing inventory. Daily exports reach ~150 tonnes, peaking above 80 tonnes/day to Russia, with monthly volumes growing 20%+ year-on-year. New Year 2026 alone saw ≈300 tonnes of Yichang navel oranges shipped to Russia, DPRK and Vietnam.

Supply chain & quality

Anchored in Yichang's national advantageous citrus zone, our standardized field-to-overseas chain integrates contract farming, unified procurement, automated washing and grading by size, brix and appearance, plus dedicated cold-chain transport — meeting international market standards at every link.

Production network

Five strategic facilities — orchard to ocean

From contracted hillside orchards in Yuan'an to optical-grading lines in Zhijiang and reefer-loading bays in Yidu, our partner network moves citrus from tree to container in 48–72 hours.
