Made Here: From farm to future, how sweet business transforms in “hometown of lychees”

Nestled in the lush landscapes of southwestern Guangdong Province, Maoming City is known as a “hometown of lychees” in China.

According to a white paper released by the local government, Maoming is China’s largest lychee production base with a planting area of approximately 1.42 million mu (about 94,667 hectares) and an annual output that accounted for roughly 20 percent of the country’s total in 2024. Beyond supplying domestic markets, Maoming lychee is exported worldwide, reaching countries including Russia, Australia, Thailand, and Japan.
