A baked food production base belonging to Wallace Burger & Chicken, the biggest western fast-food brand in China, went into production in Guanshanhu district in Guiyang, capital of Southwest China's Guizhou province, on Jan 3.

The production base covers an area of 41 mu (2.73 hectares) and has a total investment of 300 million yuan ($43.44 million). The base includes supporting facilities such as production workshops, research and development workshops, freezers, and office buildings, which will be put to use in the near future.

The production line currently in use at the base can produce 24,000 hamburger buns per hour, which is enough to supply more than 800 stores in Yunnan and Guizhou provinces. It can accommodate an additional 700 stores at full capacity.

Moving forward, the company plans to develop to boost the production and delivery base's annual output to 5,000 metric tons of lettuce, 150 million hamburger buns, and 50,000 tons of frozen food, which would create more than 200 jobs.

Additionally, to meet the vegetable demand of approximately 5,000 tons every year, the base has reached a cooperation agreement with the government of Jinhua town in Guanshanhu district, which will help promote local economic development.

Guanshanhu will continue to provide a favorable business environment for enterprises in hopes of attracting more in the future.
