After 40 years of development, flowers from Dounan have covered more than 100 categories and more than 1,600 varieties, and they have been exported to more than 50 countries and regions.
In recent years, the Chenggong district government has focused on the goal of building the world's first flower trading center in its jurisdiction, and it uses the Dounan Flower Exhibition as a platform to promote the high-quality development of Dounan's flower industry cluster that incorporates scientific research, trading and exhibition.
To that end, the local government issued support policies, carried out a pilot reform of flower tax invoice, and promoted the delivery and use of a flower seed lab under the seeding research project of the province.
Thanks to these efforts, Dounan's flower trading volume reached 12.3 billion branches, with a transaction volume of 9.5 billion yuan ($1.3 billion) in the first 10 months of the year.
