Shengzhou, the core production hub for Chinese Chunmee and Gunpowder green tea, has completed large-scale intelligent factory transformation in 2026, driven by special provincial-level industrial upgrade funds. The local tea industry is undergoing a critical shift from low-volume, price-driven bulk trade to high-quality, premium-value export manufacturing, reshaping the global supply chain of Chinese bulk green tea.
Leading local tea enterprises have launched landmark digital production lines to optimize processing efficiency and batch stability. Chunli Tea Industry has put into operation China's first fully digital production line for fresh-scented, tightly shaped Gunpowder tea. The intelligent system realizes full-process automated control from fresh leaf processing to final shaping and drying. Standardized rolling and roasting greatly unify pellet tightness, color and flavor consistency, enabling qualified premium Gunpowder products to gain a 30% market premium in global wholesale markets.
Jiacheng Tea has built an integrated intelligent Chunmee tea production line, achieving complete refining procedures within 24 hours. This highly efficient workflow perfectly meets large-scale, time-sensitive overseas bulk orders, ensuring stable quality and fast delivery for global importers. Meanwhile, Huafa Tea Industry adopts advanced intelligent blending and high-precision color sorting equipment to eliminate impurities and unqualified tea fragments. With standardized digital quality control, the company exported over 25,000 tons of green tea in 2025, successfully expanding emerging export markets in Central Asia, especially Uzbekistan.
Beyond production efficiency, the digital transformation greatly elevates industry compliance capabilities. Intelligent garden management and automated processing effectively control pesticide residues and heavy metal indicators, helping Shengzhou Chunmee and Gunpowder tea fully adapt to strict EU MRL standards and North African market access requirements. The overall industrial development trend is clear: abandoning vicious low-price competition, relying on standardized digital production to stabilize quality, and winning global market recognition through reliable compliance and premium flavor performance.
