☆ More chain business in residential communities
The district called for more chain brands for retail, catering, laundry and beauty salons to open stores in residential areas.
It encouraged some large chain supermarkets such as Jingkelong to establish their own vegetable supply brand. It also encouraged agricultural product providers outside the district, including Beijing Capital Agribusiness Group and Yongqing Qingyuan, an agricultural products trading company in Beijing’s Daxing district, to ensure abundant supply of fresh vegetables, fruits, eggs, meat and other foodstuffs.
