High-tech marvels in Qingdao leave global visitors spellbound

Founded in 1987 and headquartered in Qingdao, Aucma is one of China's top 500 manufacturing enterprises.

In recent years, it has shifted from a traditional home appliance company primarily focused on freezers to an enterprise focusing on full cold chain products.

The company currently holds more than 2,000 patents across various technological fields, including low-temperature refrigeration, green energy saving, and smart internet of things.

The advanced equipment and technologies at both CMM and Aucma offer a glimpse of the rapid technological development taking place in Qingdao WCNA.

In 2023, the region's GDP exceeded 500 billion yuan ($69.21 billion), accounting for 31.7 percent of Qingdao's total economic output.

As Qingdao WCNA celebrates its 10th anniversary in 2024, the region is drawing up a new blueprint for the future, seeking to boost the modernization of the industrial system through technological innovation and developing new quality productive forces, according to local officials.
