Linyi is implementing a focused strategy to build a competitive industrial landscape through specialization and clustering, according to the city's latest government work report, which outlines the key tasks for this year.

The city will accelerate the formation of industrial clusters for 13 flagship industry value chains. It is supporting leading enterprises, including Shandong Lingong Construction Machinery, Jinluo Wenrui Food, and Lunan Pharmaceutical, in expanding investment and developing new projects. A targeted, small-team investment promotion model aims to secure over 150 billion yuan ($21.53 billion) in funds, while technological renovation investment is set to grow by more than 10 percent.

Meanwhile, Linyi is driving green transformation. It promotes the development of standardized industrial parks and redevelops underutilized land to improve economic density. The plan includes the cultivation of at least 18 provincial or national-level green factories.

To achieve high-end upgrades, Linyi is implementing chain-specific quality and branding initiatives. Measures focus on strengthening quality management, inspection, and certification to build the regional "Yimeng quality products" brand, targeting 28 new provincial or higher-level brand recognitions. A multi-tiered capital market cultivation system will also be established to support enterprises.
