Walking into the production workshop of Ximeng County Xinsen Wood Co., Ltd., the production lines are running at full capacity. Workers operate skillfully along the lines, forklifts shuttle back and forth, and large trucks queue up for loading before heading to destinations outside the province. Yet five years ago, this company did not even have a presence in Ximeng.

Based on its rich resources of sunlight, heat, water, and ecology, Ximeng has treated the development of sugarcane, nuts, and the modern forestry industry as an important driver of high-quality county economic growth. It clarified a development path centered on leading enterprises, centralized raw-material supply, and full-chain cultivation and strengthening, integrated and reorganized local wood-processing enterprises, and pushed resources toward stronger capacity. Designated raw-material supply, supporting infrastructure, targeted labor guarantees, and a whole set of combined measures enabled Xinsen Wood to grow from a small workshop into a designated-size enterprise with annual output value exceeding RMB 40 million.

"We expanded from the initial four production lines to thirteen today. We now have more than one hundred employees, our products are sold far beyond the province, and we have also created jobs for more than one hundred nearby farming households. In the first eleven months of 2025 alone, our industrial output value reached RMB 40.61 million. That was unimaginable five years ago," said Peng Hui, chairman of Ximeng Xinsen Wood Co., Ltd.

The story of Xinsen Wood is a microcosm of the explosive growth of Ximeng's designated-size industrial enterprises. The number of enterprises entering the official industrial statistics system grew by 367 percent, with an average annual growth rate of 36 percent, ranking among the top in the city and ending Ximeng's long-standing position at the bottom in the number of designated-size industrial enterprises. Among them, six forestry-processing enterprises have continued extending their industrial chains and increasing added value. Two nut-processing enterprises have turned small nuts into an industrial chain worth hundreds of millions of RMB. Two food-processing enterprises have promoted the inheritance and breakthrough of traditional Wa flavors, allowing Wa-flavor products to leave the mountains and enter supermarkets.

"In the past, the number of designated-size enterprises in Ximeng long ranked last in the city. Today, we are focusing on industrial development, continuing to extend, supplement, and strengthen industrial chains, and constantly stabilizing supply chains. The backbone of the industrial economy has truly stood up," said Li Zhenhong, deputy director of the County Industry, Commerce, and Information Technology Bureau. A batch of high-quality enterprises is accelerating its growth and jointly building a new framework for Ximeng's industrial development.
