from

Through the Bishan tunnel, the university city is shown in front of us a broad, straight and clean Avenue. There are green trees and green grass on both sides of the road. A modern factory building is covered with trees and flowers. If it is not a factory sign in front of a factory gate, you will not think that this is an industrial park, and you think you have entered the garden district.

This is the western shoes city located in the eastern New Area of Bishan.

In this area, roads and municipal facilities named after the Wenzhou element can be seen everywhere, such as Yongjia Avenue, Yongjia bridge, AOKANG Avenue, and Hong Kang kindergarten.

In addition to greening along the street, more than 120 acres of green parks in the central area are also invested and built by AOKANG real estate.

If it is not for the local people who like to say Chongqing dialect that is difficult to understand, it is easy to mistake themselves for being in another new city in Wenzhou, but not to think of it. This is the shoe city industrial park in the west of Bishan.

Locals also like to call the western shoes industrial zone "AOKANG Industrial Park".

Bishan city framework

In January 9, 2003, the AOKANG group and the Bishan County People's government signed a formal contract for the construction of the "West China shoe city industrial park".

The total investment of the agreement is 1 billion yuan, and a special industrial park will be set up, which integrates shoe production, market circulation, scientific research information, technical training and real estate development.

At that time, the scale, function and technology content of the park were the most in the West.

Zhao Fu, President of the Bishan branch of the Wenzhou chamber of Commerce in Chongqing, Chongqing, who has been in business for 15 years, said that although the western shoes city was only a few kilometers away from Bishan City, it was all a "desolate" field.

The main urban area of Bishan is only 3.8 square kilometers.

As the 10 best characteristic industrial park in Chongqing, the starting area of Bishan Industrial Park, the West shoe capital Industrial Park occupies a total area of 5600 mu, of which the first phase is 1000 mu, the two period is 1600 mu, and the three stage is 3000 mu.

It has built three major projects, namely, Southwest China's West shoe city, AOKANG export production base, and Jin Du shoe incubation zone. It has set up supporting projects, warehousing logistics center, dream garden leisure square, about 100 shoe making enterprises and shoe machines.

And other supporting production enterprises and supporting residential quarters.

In addition, some supporting services such as shoe design, e-commerce and others have been developed.

The development and growth of "China's western shoes capital" has opened a framework for Bishan's urban construction. After nearly 10 years of development, a large number of enterprises have been settled around the complete western shoe market, and many high-rise buildings have been built, so that Bishan's urban framework has expanded from the 3.8 square kilometers of the main urban area to the current nearly 80 square kilometers.

Make Bishan city the core area of Chongqing "one hour economic circle". It is 4 kilometers away from Chongqing University Town, 37 kilometers to the main city, 30 kilometers to the railway station, 40 kilometers to the port, and 50 kilometers to the International Airport.

Today, the location is superior, Chengyu expressway, Chongqing Suzhou expressway, Chengdu Chongqing Expressway double line, Chongqing light rail line 1 and other integrated pportation convenient Bishan, economic development is constantly increasing speed.

Bishan's industrial economic engine

Liang Anding, executive director of Bishan branch of Wenzhou chamber of Commerce in Chongqing, has a Chongqing Kangda packaging printing company in Bishan.

He said that he was supporting the western shoe market. At present, there are more than 70 local businesses in the Kangda packaging cooperative customers, and the western shoes account for most of their market.

Executive director Chen Guohai owns a Longtai shoe material Co., Ltd. which covers an area of 35 mu. The company produces more than 8000 pairs of soles a day and 50% supplies AOKANG in the western shoes.

Chen Guohai said, in the early years, he has been producing sole in Wenzhou, and came to Chongqing 8 years ago. In 2008, the enterprise moved to Bishan, because the construction of the western shoes capital, no western shoes city, maybe he would not come to Chongqing Bishan development.

In the first stage of the West shoe market, the southwest shoe material trading center, the Golden Shoe hatching area and the red Firebird shoe production base, etc., the southwest shoe material exchange center, which integrates shoe material, shoe machine, shoe accessories trading, logistics freight and shoes display, covers an area of 158 mu, and is the largest and most efficient shoe market in the West.

There are more than 500 pavements in the four markets: Magnolia, peony, Rhododendron and Furong. Among them, Wenzhou people occupy 1/5 of the market. Zhao Fulai, President of Bishan branch of Wenzhou chamber of Commerce in Chongqing, is one of them.

Zhao Fulai once made leather shoes and opened shop. He came to Chongqing to do the trade of sanitary ware in 1997. Only in 2004 did he come to Bishan to do the shoe buckle decorations.

In fact, Zhao Fulai also visited Bishan earlier. However, because the shoe factories in Bishan are relatively small, the supporting market is still low and scattered, and they dare not settle in Bishan.

Over the years, the construction of the western shoe market has changed the "small, scattered and weak" appearance of the footwear industry in Bishan, pushing the local market forward.

The industry has been upgraded in an all-round way. At the same time, the industrial economy of Bishan has been further activated through the hatching and engine functions of the shoe capital.

The Jin Du shoe incubation area covers an area of 50 mu, and has 8 small shoe making supporting enterprise production plants, with a total construction area of over 1.6 square meters. It is leased at a low price to local shoemaking enterprises who are interested in starting a business but can not enter the park because of shortage of funds, so as to train effective forces for the new round of development of Bishan footwear industry.

Since 2005, the hatchery has produced more than 10 shoe companies above designated size.

Liang Anding said that the Jin Hao shoe industry, which was co operated with his business, grew up from the Jin Du shoe incubation area. In Bishan, Huang Enmei, vice president of shoe production last year with 5 acres of factory buildings, said that the 4 workers she had brought before had already opened their own shop and became the "boss" of the local shoe design.

The construction of AOKANG's western shoe capital not only promotes the urbanization and socialized construction of Bishan, but also brings out a shoe industry chain.

According to statistics, as of the end of last year, the footwear industry in Western China has set up 431 shoe industry and supporting enterprises, and the number of employment has reached 24510. It has become a real economic accelerator in Bishan.

Activate Bishan business

"Brand Wenzhou national line" south line reporter arrived in Bishan that day, is catching up with Chongqing to open an important economic conference in Bishan, as a result, almost reporters can not find accommodation, and finally, with the help of the chamber of Commerce, found a small Traders Hotel.

For Zhao Fu, this situation has become a norm in Bishan over the years.

At present, there are Bishan hotels, Jing Du Hotel and Lake Hotel in Bishan.

Before the construction of the western shoe market, although Bishan's reception capacity is not as good as it is now, it will not be like today's accommodation.

Zhao Fu, with the settlement of the western shoe market, the growth of the supporting market of footwear industry, and the continuous establishment of other industries by enterprises in Bishan, the merchants who come to Bishan are also in an endless stream, so that the business of hotels and restaurants in Bishan is particularly good.

Once some enterprises open an order or the government opens a large meeting, there will be no room or restaurant.

On the west side of the old town center of Bishan, the market on both sides of the street was originally an old shoe material market. After the completion of the western shoes, the crowded shoe material market was relocated to the new market, and now the shops almost opened up shoes and clothing shops, not only the rent of the shops was raised, but also became the local bustling shoes and clothes Street.

There are also many supermarkets around the western shoe market.

Zhao Fu said that after the western shoes were settled, business concentration was formed, and the gathering of the population also took place. After the population gathering, the prosperity of commercial matching was brought. The old shoe material market turned into shoes and clothing business street, and the supermarkets around the industrial area were all witnesses of the prosperity of the western shoes business.

It is understood that at present, the population of the main urban area of Bishan has exceeded 350 thousand, almost double that of ten years ago.
