Yunnan Province

China’s largest cigarette maker, Yunnan Province, located in southwest China, has depended on tobacco to drive economy growth. Iron and steel production, copper-smelting, and commercial vehicle production are some of Yunnan’s main manufacturing industries. Yunnan also has significant zinc, lead, and copper reserves. With the imposition of tougher smoking regulations, Yunnan’s tobacco growth in stalling, as is its GDP growth; as a result, there is impetus for the province to find a new economic driver.

Like in many other provinces, there are plans to expand railway and expressway coverage across the province. Additionally, the government has plans to expand transportation linkages along the Mekong River, further developing tourism and opening up the province to its southern neighbours as well as making Yunnan a strategically important point.
