Zhejiang Free Trade Zone is coming again! This city is the biggest beneficiary

2022-10-17 17:365350

As for the development of Zhejiang Free Trade Zone, it is neither too early nor too late to say.


In 2013, China's first free trade zone was officially established in Waigaoqiao, Shanghai. Later, Yilu continued to spread throughout the country, even to inland remote areas.


In April 2017, the first free trade zone in Zhejiang was officially launched. To everyone's surprise, Zhejiang Free Trade Zone is not in Hangzhou or Ningbo, but in Zhoushan.


Many provinces announced that there were multiple zones in the free trade zone. At that time, Zhejiang's free trade zone was only in Zhoushan. Relevant data show that the free trade zone in Zhoushan mainly focuses on the development of oil and gas industry chain and other bulk commodities.



In fact, when the Free Trade Zone was settled in Zhoushan, local netizens in Zhejiang rarely heard of it, which may also be related to the urban influence of Zhoushan.


Interestingly, Zhoushan had the only state-level new area in Zhejiang besides the first free trade zone in Zhejiang. At least in terms of the city level, Zhoushan is really not low, and it is comparable to the level of the sub provincial level.


However, as an island city, Zhoushan lacks the support of a series of basic resources, and also lacks confidence for a long time.


Ningbo and Zhoushan face each other across the sea, which is also one of the five cities separately listed in the national plan. It must be a pity that we can not get the national new area and free trade zone at the first time.



Of course, the biggest beneficiary we want to talk about this time is not Zhoushan!


As our title says, Zhejiang Free Trade Zone is coming again. When the only free trade zone lagged behind Zhoushan, some scholars predicted that Zhejiang's free trade zone would be upgraded and expanded in the next few years.


In September of the previous year, the State officially issued a notice on the regional plan for the expansion of Zhejiang Pilot Free Trade Zone. So far, the implementation scope of Zhejiang Free Trade Zone has expanded from Zhoushan to Hangzhou, Ningbo and Jinhua.


After several years of development, Zhejiang Free Trade Zone has five major functional orientations, namely, oil and gas centered bulk commodity resource allocation base, new international trade center, international shipping and logistics hub, digital economy development demonstration zone, and advanced manufacturing cluster zone.


Zhoushan, Hangzhou, Ningbo and Jinhua, the four major cities, performed their respective duties and assumed their due responsibilities and obligations.



It is observed that in recent years, Zhejiang has basically thought of Jinhua when publishing various plans.


Jinhua is undoubtedly the biggest beneficiary of the expansion of the free trade zone. After all, the development of Hangzhou and Ningbo has always been the leaders of Zhejiang Province, and Zhoushan is the location of the Free Trade Zone. The upgrading of the Free Trade Zone is indeed a big gift to Jinhua.


It should be pointed out that Jinhua can not obtain the seat in this free trade zone without the full support of Yiwu, a county-level city under its jurisdiction. Yiwu is even comparable to many traditional strong cities in export trade, per capita income, express logistics and other fields.


In official documents, this free trade zone in Jinhua is also called Jinyi Zone.



According to the data, the total area of Jinyi Area has reached 35.99 square kilometers (including 1.34 square kilometers of Yiwu Comprehensive Bonded Area and 1.26 square kilometers of Jinyi Comprehensive Bonded Area).


Since the establishment of Jinyi District, Jinhua has made in-depth development around the "five freedoms" of trade, investment, capital, transportation and personnel exchanges and market players, and has made a series of remarkable achievements.


According to relevant data, Jinyi District accounts for 3/1000 of the land area of Jinhua City, but contributes nearly 1/3 of the total trade volume of Jinhua City. The industrial agglomeration and influence are quite outstanding.


For Jinyi District, the development of small commodity trade and logistics has become a benchmark in Zhejiang and even the whole country.


Of course, the second round of development of Zhejiang Free Trade Zone has just begun. You can also look forward to the future achievements of Jinhua!
