[Jilu Hub · Pearl of the Grand Canal: Linqing City Invites Global Investors to Embark on a New Chapter of Development]&hcCore Positioning: Situated at the intersection of three major strategies—ecological conservation of the Yellow River Basin, the Grand Canal Cultural Belt, and the Shandong Provincial Capital Economic Circle—Linqing is the only county-level city in Shandong that borders Hebei Province. As a key gateway for Shandong’s westward expansion and Shandong’s eastward outreach into Shanxi and Hebei, it offers a natural geographical advantage for enterprises seeking to expand into North China and connect with the global market.&hcI. Three Core Investment Advantages&hc1. Comprehensive Transportation Network and Open Platforms: The Beijing-Kowloon Railway and the under-construction Xiong’an-Shangqiu High-Speed Railway traverse the city, while a grid-like highway network ensures seamless connectivity. The synergy between the West Shandong International Land Port and the Bonded Logistics Center (Type B) has boosted customs clearance efficiency by over 30% and reduced logistics costs by 20–30%, effectively resolving the core pain points of slow import/export processing and high costs, thereby providing robust support for enterprises’ cross-border operations.&hc2. Strong Industrial Cluster Foundation: The region boasts four leading industries—bearings (known as the “Hometown of Chinese Bearings,” with over 5,100 enterprises), textiles, non-ferrous metals, and papermaking. It has cultivated numerous national-level “Specialized, Refined, Unique, and Innovative” enterprises, forming a closed-loop “R&D-Production-Support-Logistics” full-chain ecosystem. Upon moving in, enterprises can quickly connect with upstream and downstream resources, reducing support costs by 10%–20%, with significant industrial agglomeration effects.&hc3. High-Quality Business Environment: We have deepened reforms in the investment approval system, implementing one-stop approval processes and comprehensive, personalized support services. With over 7,000 mu of industrial land reserved and standardized factory buildings available, enterprises can begin production immediately upon moving in. Approval timelines have been reduced by more than 50%, providing efficient and convenient support throughout the project implementation process, ensuring a worry-free investment experience and a secure foundation for business growth.&hcII.
