Relying on the Xindushi zone in Jiuyuan – with a planned area of 37.5 square kilometers – the headquarters economy, commerce and logistics industries have all been steadily developing there. In addition, the cultural tourism, sports, convention and exhibition industries have gradually emerged – and financial insurance and high-end real estate businesses have based themselves there.

Five major industrial clusters have been formed in the district: the chemicals, electric power, steel deep processing, equipment manufacturing and new materials industries.
