F ounded on 01 May 1997 with an approval conferred by Guangzhou MunicipalGovernment, Guangzhou New South China Shoes Arcade (this Arcade) is a large marketplace specialized in shoes wholesaling and has been erected by use of the investment poured by Guangzhou Xing-Hao Industrial Development Co., Ltd. It is located at No.1627~1629 upon Guangzhou Avenue South, covers a land area of 100,000 square meters, and has been known as one of the largest and most influential shoes wholesaling marketplaces in South China.

After a lapse of one decade that saw its perseverant efforts in seeking business expansions, Guangzhou Xing-Hao Industrial Development Co., Ltd. has turned out a large-sized, rather influential non-governmental enterprise operating on a relatively large scale, and explored multiple industries including property leasing, merchandise retailing, logistics and transport, international trade, education and real estate investment. So far, the company has invested in many other professional marketplaces (e.g. Guangzhou South China Auto Parts Square), in addition to this arcade. Until today, the company has set up over 10 proprietary affiliates, inclusive of Guangzhou New South China Shoes Industry Co., Ltd., Guangzhou Bai-Cheng Property Management Co., Ltd., and Guangzhou Hua-Yu Transportation Service Co., Ltd.

Prime locality for easy access

This arcade is located in the most important land section pursuant to Guangzhou Municipal Program for Extension of Urban Areas Southwards, which is exactly the center of a would- be business circle in political, trade and financial terms in Haizhu District. Besides, it is also close to GuangzhouPazhouInternationalConvention & ExhibitionCenter, and surrounded by a number of ancillary facilities erected for this convention & exhibition center. Moreover, the land section where this arcade is nestled has been defined as a highlight on the traffic map of Guangzhou, and hosts a crisscross network of roads and expressways linking varied parts of the city with Pearl River Delta Region, Hong Kong and Macao, such as Guangzhou Avenue, Industrial Avenue, Nanzhou Road, and Xinjiao Road (all being trunk roads in urban areas). On top of that, Metro Line 3, City Ring Expressway, South China Expressway, New Light Expressway, Haizhu Passenger Station and Guangzhou New Passenger Ferry Station are all situated in this land section. This arcade is only half an hour¡¯s drive from Guangzhou New Railway Station (in construction now) and GuangzhouNewBai-yunAirport. Therefore, this arcade is endued with solid traffic convenience and easily accessible by air, water and land, thus enabling its tenants to make good fortune handily.

Since 2005 when Guangzhou effected an extensive reform into its administrative divisions, the geographical locality of this arcade has appeared more enviable. Thus, this arcade has been widely reckoned to possess great potentialities for development.

Generous support from governments

Both Guangzhou Municipal Government and Haizhu District Government have taken it as a significant task to erect professional marketplaces, wholesaling arcades and logistics parks along the sides of Guangzhou Avenue South, and have conferred generous support on the construction of these establishments, including New South China Shoes Arcade.
