Luo Lijun, a farmer in Lu Yuan Town, worked as a sewing worker for 6 years in Foshan Everbright clothing company in Guangdong. He returned to his hometown earlier this year.

Unexpectedly, Everbright clothing company has built the factory to its doorstep - the new Foshan Everbright Yanling company has been set up in the Kowloon economic and Technological Development Zone of the county.

In April, the new company went into operation and Luo Lijun went back to business.

Although it is a low season, he still got 2000 yuan salary in November. "I can not only care for my family but also have a steady income."

Luo Lijun said.

According to Tang Qingbai, director general of Yanling Everbright company, there are more than 400 employees in the company, such as Luo Lijun, which has more than 100 people in Yanling.

These skilled old employees are the "treasure" of the company, which not only solves the "labor shortage" of enterprises, but also greatly improves the production efficiency.

According to Rao Xiangming, Secretary of the Work Committee of the Kowloon economic and Technological Development Zone, Yanling has no advantages in raw material resources and no sales market advantage in developing textile and garment industry. It is a typical "two out of all" and a large number of skilled workers in textile and garment industry, which is an important advantage in attracting investment.

Since last year, the county has launched the "cost cards", "emotional cards" and "integrity cards", and launched the convenient measures such as the approval agent system of enterprises, attracting a number of coastal textile and garment enterprises such as "Everbright" and "Anthony" to settle down one after another, forming the industrial chain of "cotton in and out garments" and directly driving more than 5000 Yanling farmers to get their jobs in situ.

At present, the Kowloon economic and Technological Development Zone has become the "provincial cotton textile industrial base", "the first batch of the province to undertake the industrial pfer of the textile industry characteristic base", and the three major industrial clusters represented by textile and clothing are initially formed.

This year, the total output value of the Kowloon economic and Technological Development Zone is expected to exceed 2 billion yuan, of which the textile and garment industry accounts for about 1/3.
