A dedicated fireworks quay will be built in Beihai port by Liuyang Government



According to a delighted Mr. Xu Qiangguo, the Director of the Fireworks Bureau who just returned from Guangxi on December 29. “Liuyang will build a dedicated quay for fireworks transportation in Beihai in the near future.” On Dec. 26th, accompanied by the deputy group leader of “Ten Billion fireworks project group” Mr. Fu Xuming and the deputy mayor Mr. Jiang Guoping, Mr. Yi Jialiang who is a Member of the Standing Committee of Chansha and Party Secretary of Liuyang, arrived in Guangxi Province to have the second round of meeting with the International Harbor Group of North Bay. After the meeting, both parties signed the Memorandum of Cooperating to construct the Fireworks Quay.

Over the years, due to the existing problems of China Port, there had been difficulties in exporting Liuyang fireworks from there. In order to have a permanent solution to the transporting problem, Liuyang government plans to cooperate with the International Harbor Group of Northern Bay to build a dedicated Quay in Beihai which can load 150,000 tons fireworks and dangerous goods. On this basis, the new quay will create a complete supply chain from the production area to the destination. To achieve safety, stability, professionalism, convenience and low cost, they would implement a model of “Production area inspection, concentrate on loading, enveloping the container on the spot, and transshipment”.

It is understood that the fireworks quay project has commenced. At present, Liuyang has worked out the main body of investment, structure and budget. The feasibility study on the storage, inspection and prepared logistics is still ongoing.
