In recent years, Sinan County has leveraged its ecological resource advantages to carefully cultivate and enhance its ecological Tea Brand. Through strengthening close cooperation and a coordinated development mechanism among tea enterprises, it has successfully attracted the attention of numerous high-quality clients.
At Guizhou BaiFuyuan Ecological Agriculture Development Co., Ltd. in Xujia Basin Town, Sinan County, the workshop is bustling with activity as workers are busily packing boxes of red Oolong Tea for shipment. This batch of tea was ordered by Guizhou Dingjia Tea Industry Co., Ltd., a tea ingredient supplier for Wahaha Group, and is destined for Wahaha's tea product beverage production line.
Speaking about the 800-ton order of red oolong tea, Liu Housi, head of the Sinan County Tea Industry Association, said: “The first delivery consists of 60 tons, divided into three batches to be delivered to the customer's designated location. The first truckload, carrying 20 tons of premium tea, has already departed smoothly.”
Thanks to the matchmaking efforts of the Sinan County Tea and Mulberry Technology Promotion Center, Guizhou Dingjia Tea Industry conducted in-depth inspections of several local tea enterprises in Sinan, eventually leading to this collaboration. Lin Songrong, head of Guizhou Dingjia Tea Industry, remarked: “The introduction by the Tea Promotion Center allowed us to meet many outstanding tea enterprises in Sinan. Our first cooperation met our quality expectations, and we are very satisfied.”
To further promote the development of the tea industry, Sinan County established a tea industry association in July this year. The association brings together the wisdom and strength of various tea cultivation, processing, and tea industry chain-related enterprises, aiming to expand the scale of the industry, improve tea quality, create well-known brands, and actively explore domestic and international markets, injecting strong momentum into the tea industry.
“Through the efforts of the association, we have signed orders for Black Tea and black broken tea with merchants from Hubei, Hunan, and other regions. Currently, related enterprises are working overtime to produce these teas. At the same time, we are also actively negotiating with overseas merchants from Kazakhstan, Dubai, and other places, striving to introduce Sinan tea to a broader international market and allowing the Sinan tea industry to shine on the global stage,” said Liu Housi.
As a green ecological industry, a characteristic advantageous industry, and a vital pillar for rural revitalization, the tea industry in Sinan County has seen significant development in recent years. Currently, the area under tea plantation exceeds 180,000 mu, covering 21 townships, with over 150,000 mu of tea gardens in operation. In 2024, the county's tea industry is expected to achieve a total tea output of 13,000 tons, with a value of 1.5 billion yuan.
