Pingtan Comprehensive Pilot Zone in Fujian Province serves as a pivotal cross-Straits cooperation hub and a key player in Fujian's marine economic and opening-up development, boasting unique customs and trade policies for Taiwan-related businesses. The zone kicked off its investment drive for the year at a Chinese New Year forum on February 24, signing 24 projects totaling 5.07 billion yuan, marking a new step in its industrial development and investment promotion.

The signed projects span a range of sectors including cultural and tourism integration, emerging industries, digital economy, marine economy and fund investment. Projects include a five-star hotel, a construction machinery industrial park, a cultural and tourism complex and a 3300TEU container ship. Notably, the Pazhuo Fluid Technology (Phase II) Project represents an investment of about 200 million yuan. This initiative will focus on re-export trade and bonded processing of server pipeline components in Pingtan, with plans to gradually establish a distribution center for re-exports of servers, solar energy equipment, semiconductors, power supplies, and automotive materials. This will further energize the growth of the bonded processing industry.

Leveraging a series of policy advantages—such as the expansion of duty-free commodity categories in the cross-Straits small commodity trading market and the special customs supervision policy of "opening the front line and managing the second line"—Pingtan has intensified its investment promotion efforts in recent years. Data shows that last year, the zone signed 90 new projects with a planned total investment of 30.4 billion yuan, and 56 social investment projects were successfully implemented. The pilot zone also planned and reserved 202 projects with a total investment of 229.9 billion yuan, laying a solid foundation for its long-term industrial development.
