China's Jiangxi Province
Attracting More Bearing Manufacturers
copyright © 2005 eBearing Inc.

In China, Yushan county, Jiangxi Province, is working to establish itself as one of the most important centers for bearing manufacturers.

China claims high performance for Yushan's residents, fewer than 1% of whom they say are illiterate and over 98% of whose education has progressed to at least the middle school level. The state-controlled media claims over 100 recent local graduates have gone on to receive doctoral degrees.

Jiangxi and Yushan are located in eastern China. It has been growing in importance as an industrial and mining center, with its location along the central rail lines, service by a new highway (the 320, which put Shanghai only four hours away by car or truck), and being only 80km from an international airport. And unlike many areas of China, Yushan's electrical service is over-built, the rivers in its subtropical climate providing for several hydroelectric power generation facilities.

Yushan is creating a Bearing Industrial Zone along the new highway 320, following its success in attracting the Jiangxi Bearing Testing Center and the Jiangxi Bearing Chamber of Commerce. The zone offers subsidies for bearing manufacturers who locate there.

There are currently over a dozen ISO9001-certified large bearing manufacturers in the area. The list includes Fujian Chaoda Group, producing over 40 million ball bearings each year, and Yushan Tianchang Group (formerly Yushan Bearing Group).
