Yakking about helping poorer districts
Print Edition
YAK meat from Shangri-La and Pu’er tea from Changning in Yunnan are some of the products on sale at a sustainable industry store which opened in Minhang District yesterday.
The shop, at 695 Qixin Road, part of the nation-wide poverty alleviation program, aims to help Minhang’s sister districts in the remote regions of Xinjiang and Yunnan.
“We hope to build a platform to showcase and sell high-quality agricultural products,” said Wu Bin, deputy director of Minhang government.
He added it was a model of “precise poverty alleviation” combining both consumption and charity. To promote the opening, a three-day fair selling the sister districts’ agricultural products is being held in an open-air square outside the store.
Residents, authorities and companies have bought 41 million yuan (US$6 million) of products.
Duan Xing’en runs a dendrobe stem farm in Longling. “We know how to plant good dendrobe but we know little about promotion,” he said.
A local resident, who gave his name as Zhou, spent hundreds of yuan on dendrobe stem, walnut oil and red dates. “It’s really good that I can buy authentic and high-quality agricultural products locally,” he said.
