Brand Expansion for Mountain & Sea Produce | Yingtianfangzhou Builds Diversified Sales Network under the “Hainan Fresh Produce” Initiative

Guided by Hainan’s 15th Five-Year Plan for Accelerating Agricultural and Rural Modernization and the Three-Year Action Plan for “Hainan Fresh Produce” Agricultural Brand Promotion, Hainan is advancing the branding and market-oriented development of specialty agricultural products. It works to form an integrated brand framework covering standards, certification, testing and traceability, and expand domestic and overseas distribution channels for local agricultural and fishery goods. Rooted in Hainan’s rich mountain and sea produce resources, Yingtianfangzhou advances brand cultivation for local specialties and develops sales networks on the basis of origin management and primary processing, connecting farms, fishing ports with end consumers.

Hainan abounds with produce including pepper, tropical fresh fruits and dried seafood. Many local raw materials carry distinctive flavour profiles, yet they have long faced challenges such as low brand recognition and poor information linkage between production and sales. Drawing on its accumulated supply chain experience at production bases, Yingtianfangzhou standardises its offerings including mango products, white pepper and dried seafood. It unifies product specifications and quality control protocols, shapes brand narratives, explores the regional features of Hainan’s local produce, and integrates its products into the regional agricultural brand development system.

In terms of channel development, the brand builds a diversified online-and-offline marketing network. Online, it reaches consumers through content e-commerce, community groups and gift retail channels. Offline, it collaborates with supermarkets, agricultural wholesale markets and cultural-tourism souvenir outlets to tap the gifting market for Hainan specialties. Leveraging the geographic advantages of the Hainan Free Trade Port, the brand also takes part in agricultural expos and production-sales matching events to create more exposure opportunities for local produce.

Brand development delivers feedback benefits to upstream industries. Stable market orders encourage partnering farmers and cooperatives to adopt standardised planting and harvesting practices, supporting consistent production schedules at origin sites. Yingtianfangzhou uses traceability files and inspection records as foundations of brand credibility, translating its earlier achievements in origin traceability and quality control into consumer trust, so buyers can gain a clearer understanding of the origin stories behind Hainan’s produce.

Moving forward, Yingtianfangzhou will keep aligning with policies for the high-efficiency tropical agriculture in Hainan. It will refine product standardisation systems, diversify sales channels, tell authentic stories of Hainan’s mountain and sea produce, and help local specialty products reach broader markets steadily.
