Guangshui Free-Range Chicken

Guangshui Free-Range Chicken

　　Guangshui Free-Range Chicken is a specialty of Guangshui City, Suizhou, Hubei Province. This chicken is primarily fed on grass and grains, raised in a completely pollution-free environment. With a short growth cycle, quick returns, and low input costs, it boasts tender, delicious meat and is highly favored by consumers.

　　Currently, Guangshui Free-Range Chicken is sold in markets in Wuhan, Xiangfan, Suizhou, and Anlu, and is also exported to Henan, Jiangxi, and other regions. Merchants from other areas flock here for the product, which remains in high demand.

　　Yuandian Town in Guangshui City has vast mountainous areas. The local government encourages farmers to raise free-range chickens in the forests, where they forage for wild plants, resulting in high-quality, natural “green food” that is in short supply. The town places great importance on the free-range chicken industry, having registered the “Zhaizipo” trademark and implemented premium packaging. Each chicken is boxed individually, making it both attractive and hygienic, as well as easy to carry.

　　The Yuandian Town government successfully attracted an investment of 10 million yuan from Wenzhou businessman Gao Mingdu to establish the Hubei Xilijia Food Processing Factory. The factory will use Xinglong free-range chickens as the main ingredient for deep processing and is set to begin production in March next year. Currently, the town raises over one million free-range chickens.
