The company has supplied such companies as AVIC Chengdu Aircraft Industrial (Group) Co, Avic Xi'an Aircraft Industry (Group) Co and AVIC Guizhou Aviation Industry (Group) Co.

Its deputy general manager highlighted his group's strong aerospace links.

With the company producing and processing spare parts for AVIC Guizhou Aviation Industry (Group) Co, Xiao said it wanted to establish a precision aerospace part manufacturing base and make full use of the geographical advantages of the Guiyang National High-tech Industrial Development Zone.

It's estimated that the new plant will generate 200 million yuan ($31.54 million) annually in output capacity after being completed.

After giving a brief presentation on the development zone, officials said they hoped the company would put forward a detailed investment plan for the project as soon as possible.
