The New Year is a grand plan and make a new chapter. In order to fully demonstrate the distinctive highlights and experiences of promoting high-quality development in all sectors in the district, the District Party Committee Propaganda Department and the District Media Center have planned and launched the district’s “High-quality Development Research Tour” all-media news action, organized front-line reporters, closely following the theme of high-quality development, went to the development zones and towns and streets to conduct research and interviews, and deeply explored and publicized the outstanding achievements, wonderful stories and experiences of Lishui in solidly promoting high-quality development. The sixth stop of the “High-quality Development Research Tour”, let us go to Jingqiao Town, Lishui District together.
As a highland of the biopharmaceutical industry, the Yangtze River Delta region accounts for about 30% of the country’s output value, and Jiangsu and Nanjing are even ahead of the country. In recent years, Jingqiao Town has targeted this industrial track and built a cluster of pharmaceutical and medical device circulation services, and strived to add a professional logistics service platform to Nanjing and surrounding pharmaceutical production bases .
Industry breakout
Break a new track
“Beep…” With a crisp indicator light sounding, numbers lit up on all the pharmaceutical shelves in Jiangsu No. 1 Changda Pharmaceutical Flow Co., Ltd. in Jingqiao Town, “summoned” workers to pick up the goods. ”As long as the computer issues an instruction, a row of numbers will appear on each shelf. Green represents the shelf number, and red represents the quantity of goods. Picking is very convenient!” said a staff member of Jiangsu No. 1 Changda Pharmaceutical Flow Co., Ltd.
In 2023, Jingqiao Town has introduced a new intelligent pharmaceutical flow enterprise – Jiangsu No. 1 Changda Pharmaceutical Flow Co., Ltd. Unlike ordinary pharmaceutical abortion companies, the “intelligent” drug sorting system used by the company has increased the picking efficiency by more than 30%
.”Currently, the monthly shipment volume is around 30,000 orders, and the output value this year is expected to reach 350 million yuan.” said Li Dazhuan, manager of the company’s storage and transportation department. In 2024, the total revenue of the pharmaceutical flow industry in Jingqiao Town exceeded 500 million, of which No. 1 Changda contributed nearly 300 million yuan, accounting for half of the land. 2021 is the first year for Jingqiao Town to target the pharmaceutical flow industry, and it introduced the first pharmaceutical flow company in the town – Nanjing Yongan Pharmaceutical Resources Co., Ltd. The company started production in four months, achieved operating income of 170 million yuan in the first year, and then stabilized at around 250 million yuan per year. “The successful commissioning of Yong’an Pharmaceutical has strengthened our determination to develop modern pharmaceutical and medical device circulation service industries, and decided to develop it as the leading industry.” The main person in charge of Jingqiao Town said.
As the core area of the health industry in Lishui District, Jingqiao Town has actively responded to the call for green development in recent years, closed all chemical enterprises, and planned to develop health care industries. With the successful production of Jiangsu No. 1 Changda Pharmaceutical and Yong’an Pharmaceutical, Jingqiao Town has taken advantage of the situation and successively introduced companies such as Puqian Pharmaceutical and Borui Technology to settle in. The two companies will be fully put into production in April this year. At present, the effect of Jingqiao Town’s pharmaceutical industry cluster has begun to appear, and its revenue in 2025 is expected to exceed 1.5 billion yuan.
Behind the transformation
Take a combination of punches
“It’s not that we run fast, but that Jingqiao has laid the track.” Wang Xiaobin, general manager of Nanjing Yong’an Pharmaceutical Flow Co., Ltd., expressed his thoughts – the rapid production of Changda Pharmaceutical and Yong’an Pharmaceutical is inseparable from the local government’s combination of “revitalizing idle land and optimizing the business environment” .
Changda Pharmaceutical and Yongan Pharmaceutical are both located in the former Guanshan Industrial Park, which was once known as the “Industrial Rust Belt”. By implementing the “empty cage and replace birds” strategy, Jingqiao Town has successfully revitalized a total of 11,500 square meters of inefficient land in Guanshan Park, making valuable space for the vigorous development of the pharmaceutical abortion industry .
”The two companies cleverly utilized the existing old factories in the park, and through upgrades and renovations, they greatly accelerated the production process of the companies.” A relevant person in charge of Jingqiao Town said.
Renovate the factory, coordinate logistics, optimize approval procedures… During the project’s production, Jingqiao Town provides a “full life cycle service” model in response to the characteristics of pharmaceutical flow enterprises, and also forges the core competitiveness to enhance the business environment ; through optimizing services and business investment, it promotes major breakthroughs in project breakthroughs and achieves the “acceleration” of high-quality development of industrial clusters.
In recent years, Jingqiao Town has always adhered to the orientation of enterprise needs in the process of promoting the implementation of the project, ensuring that every policy and every service can accurately meet the actual needs of the enterprise, and truly achieved “think what the enterprise thinks and worry about what the enterprise is anxious about.”
Ecological reconstruction
Link out a new cluster
A spark can start a prairie fire. A pharmaceutical company attracts an industrial cluster and produces a series of “chemical reactions”.
Last year, Nanjing Smart Health and Health Innovation Park Area A, located in Jingqiao Town, was put into use, with a total of 14 standardized factories and 1 supporting house. The first batch of 6 projects have been signed and settled, providing modern production and R&D space for the companies that have settled in.
Nanjing Smart Health and Health Innovation Park is a major municipal project jointly built by Jingqiao Town and Lishui Environmental Group . It has a total area of 205,000 square meters. It is planned to be built in phases in three areas A, B and C. It aims to create a high-standard manufacturing carrier integrating manufacturing production areas, R&D pilot areas, and scientific research display and incubation areas. After the project is put into operation, it is expected to achieve an annual output value of 2 billion yuan and profits and taxes of nearly 100 million yuan.
“The park has first-class infrastructure and considerate services, which will provide strong support for the development of our company.” The person in charge of Nanjing Borui Technology Co., Ltd., an operating company of modern pharmaceutical distribution platform, praised the park.
”This year, our town will strive to create a new form of industrial highland for modern medical and medical device circulation services that have unique characteristics and agglomeration effects by building carriers, optimizing services and strengthening the chain.” said Hu Youliang, Secretary of the Party Committee of Jingqiao Town.
In accordance with the requirements of “competing projects, focusing on investment promotion, and improving services” proposed by the First Session of Lishui New Year, Jingqiao Town is striving to achieve the goal of “Lishui characteristics, Nanjing first-class, and nationwidely renowned” medical and medical device logistics service aggregation center . This year, Jingqiao Town will focus on industrial chain investment around industries such as big health, intelligent manufacturing, and medical devices. With the strategy of “extending chain, supplementing chains, and strengthening chains”, it will scientifically plan the industrial development layout. Through precise investment promotion, we promote the agglomeration of upstream and downstream industries, aiming to build an industrial cluster with significant influence in China, making “innovation manufacturing + smart medical care” a landmark feature of Jingqiao Town’s new medicine and life and health industry.
