Chairman Yang Qitian stated: “After 19 months of construction, the Tianjin production base has been successfully completed, marking the full-scale launch of the ‘Zhongjie’ brand in the North China market and heralding a new chapter for Zhongjie Ice Cream. From a strategic and developmental perspective, the North China market is an indispensable battleground for corporate growth and a vital pathway for expanding our operational flexibility.” The Tianjin production base benefits from three key advantages—favorable timing, advantageous location, and harmonious conditions: Tianjin is situated in North China, adjacent to Beijing and Hebei Province, and close to Northeast China; its climate, culinary traditions, lifestyle, and consumer habits are remarkably similar to those of Liaoning Province. Leveraging these strengths, the Zhongjie Ice Cream Tianjin production base will meet the North China market’s demand for high-quality ice cream.
Grand Opening Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony
The newly completed and commissioned Zhongjie Bingdian Tianjin production base represents a total investment of RMB 260 million. Adhering to an optimal balance between land use and production capacity, the facility spans 47,000 square meters and boasts a daily production capacity of 300 metric tons, while maximizing both labor and energy efficiency without wasting a single square meter of land. The production base is characterized by two key features: automation and intelligent operations. All equipment used in the plant is state-of-the-art, sourced from both domestic and international manufacturers, enabling end-to-end traceability of products from manufacturing through to sales. This not only ensures high product quality but also streamlines production processes and shortens lead times.

Founded in 1946, Zhongjie Bingdian boasts nearly 73 years of history and is China’s earliest-established, most dynamic, and highly professional manufacturer of chilled beverages and frozen desserts. As a domestically leading cold-drink producer with robust, sustained growth, Zhongjie Bingdian operates production facilities in Shenyang, Shanghai, Harbin, and other key cities, with a nationwide sales network that spans the entire country.
As a time-honored brand, Zhongjie Bingdian has consistently pursued breakthroughs and innovation. In 2016, leveraging the advantages of e-commerce platforms, it launched the premium cold-drink brand Zhongjie 1946, marking a new chapter in its transformation from traditional sales to mobile e-commerce and new retail. Since its inception, Zhongjie 1946 has topped Tmall’s 618, Double 11, and annual ice-cream category sales charts for four consecutive years. In 2019, the brand was recognized by the Brand Management Professional Committee of the China Association for Asian Economic Development as one of China’s Top Ten Innovative Brands in its industry.
“The law of changing times has never altered: all things in the world operate according to inherent patterns and critical junctures. Every industry eventually encounters its own ceiling—particularly traditional enterprises in traditional sectors. The key is to identify the pivotal moments where trends converge and to seize the opportunities of the present. In the processing and manufacturing sector, the most significant ceiling is this: only by delivering high-quality processing and production can a company achieve high-quality growth. From raw-material sourcing and R&D to production and sales, Zhongjie Bingdian is elevating itself to new heights through both specialization and greater refinement,” said Chairman Yang Qitian.

“Gold only truly belongs to you when it is earned through hard work and integrity; a business is never built on hype, but rather through the enduring cultural legacy of its law-abiding, virtuous, and passionate leaders. The development of Zhongjie Bingdian would be impossible without the unwavering support and assistance of our suppliers, distributors, service providers, as well as government authorities and industry leaders. For years, we have steadfastly committed ourselves to doing one thing exceptionally well—and with that foundation in place, we are confident that Zhongjie is fully equipped to seize the opportunities of the future,” said Chairman Yang Qitian.
Looking ahead, Zhongjie Bingdian will continuously adapt and refine its approach, steadfastly embracing the new development philosophy of innovation, coordination, green practices, openness, and shared benefits to drive high-quality growth. With a global vision and adherence to international standards, the company will forge a distinctive and sustainable path forward—“preserving the essence of professional expertise, setting industry benchmarks, aligning with international best practices, and fostering a thriving cold-drink culture.”
