Xuyi, nestled along the banks of the Huai River, is truly a land of plenty, earning the title “Capital of Chinese Crayfish”. The renowned Thirteen Spices Crayfish, a favorite among diners, originated here in Xuyi.

There were 107 new contracts signed, 61 new projects initiated, and 52 projects completed, each with an investment exceeding one billion yuan.
