On April 17, the 10th China International Aquatic Science and Technology Conference 2026 was grandly held at the Tongwei International Center in Chengdu. This year's conference was themed "Led by Science and Technology, Driven by Innovation, Advanced by Green Aquaculture." The event brought together key leaders from central, provincial, and municipal government departments, industry associations, academicians, experts, leading enterprises, and corporate elites. The attending guests engaged in deep discussions on hot industry topics, shared practical experiences, and jointly deliberated on domestic and international development trends. This collective effort injected strong momentum into the aquaculture industry, driving it to achieve new milestones in the new era. Dr. Zhang Lu, Vice President of Tongwei Co., Ltd. and General Manager of TWAD, delivered a keynote report titled "Height, Depth, and Warmth — 2026 TWAD 'Ten Thousand Households Growing Together'" live at the venue. This opened a powerful new chapter for joining hands with users to pursue mutual development.
At the launch event of the "Height, Depth, and Warmth — 2026 TWAD 'Ten Thousand Households Growing Together'" keynote report, General Manager Zhang stated that at the beginning of 2025, TWAD re-clarified its corporate positioning. The Company completed its transition from a standalone product supplier to an integrated, comprehensive solution provider. The new leadership team firmly advances the grounded execution of the Quality Policy. They adhere to strategic focus and comprehensive operational execution. By centering heavily on the three core pillars of product competitiveness, service capability, and operational quality, they successfully construct a sustainable competitive advantage. Backed by this framework, the Company unleashes powerful endogenous momentum, resulting in an all-around surge in business performance. In 2026, Tongwei will continue to deepen the core themes of "technological height, product depth, and user warmth," promoting systemic optimization across multiple dimensions.
Technological Height: Continuous Upgrading of Innovation Capabilities
Tongwei has consistently regarded technological innovation as the ultimate source of corporate development. The Company has assembled a professional team of over 700 scientific and technological talents, complemented by specialized testing centers and supporting infrastructure. To date, the Company has established 16 provincial and ministerial-level R&D platforms. It holds a cumulative total of over 800 authorized patents. Furthermore, the Company has led or participated in the formulation and revision of 61 national and industry standards. It has also spearheaded or participated in 57 national, provincial, and ministerial-level government-funded projects. Through continuous investment in innovative R&D and the successful commercialization of technological achievements, Tongwei has won the second prize of the State Scientific and Technological Progress Award five times within fifteen years.
Building upon its existing National Enterprise Technology Center and the key laboratories under the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, TWAD reached another milestone in 2025. It partnered with Sichuan Agricultural University and the Sichuan Aquaculture Research Institute to jointly establish the "Sichuan Provincial Key Laboratory of Aquaculture Health and Intelligent Farming." This initiative builds an innovative industry-university-research-application pipeline spanning "basic theoretical innovation — breakthrough in key technologies — pilot-scale expansion and validation — industrial-scale application," accelerating the commercial production of core technological achievements.
Product Depth: Consistently Leading and Stable Product Performance
Product quality is the absolute lifeline of Tongwei's development. Tongwei enforces rigorous quality control over feed raw materials, establishing procurement standards that surpass national baselines. Concurrently, Tongwei has strengthened its supplier evaluation systems to foster healthy competition among suppliers, ensuring that any fraudulent or adulterated materials have nowhere to hide. Tongwei has maintained a 100% passing rate in spot checks conducted by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs for over 10 consecutive years.
In addition to strictly controlling quality at the source, Tongwei took the lead in self-developing an aquaculture big data collection and analysis system, which has been fully deployed across the market. In 2025, the system captured over 150,000 pieces of frontline farming data. By leveraging this self-developed, professional analysis system, the Company has strengthened the collection and evaluation of aquaculture data. This enables continuous benchmarking and optimization, providing solid data support for precise product positioning, lowering farming costs, and enhancing production efficiency.
Through years of unyielding dedication to quality and deep operational accumulation, Tongwei's products have garnered immense recognition from farmers nationwide.
User Warmth: Upgraded Services and Financial Safeguards
As early as February 2006, Tongwei proposed and launched the "Ten Thousand Households Common Growth Plan." This initiative linked the interests of large-scale farmers directly with the interests of the enterprise, establishing a novel strategic partnership centered on mutual growth. Twenty years later, Tongwei continues to focus on large-scale fish farms and high-quality clients across the industrial chain. By delivering premium products and services and integrating industry resources, the Company adapts to evolving industry trends, realizing the "Ten Thousand Households Growing Together" vision for a new era.
In 2025, Tongwei restructured its service framework by establishing the "133" service model. Concurrently, the Company upheld the philosophy of "inviting clients up, walking down to the front lines, discovering needs, and resolving pain points," allowing users to fully participate in supervising Tongwei's quality. Throughout this process, executive officers from the headquarters participated fully, interfacing directly with clients to resolve frontline challenges immediately. Through routine empowerment and the sharing of industry resources, the Company monitors and supports the full lifecycle development of its clients.
To ensure that user demands remain unblocked, Tongwei opened the "President Direct." This established a direct communication channel between the headquarters and the front lines of the market, forming a closed-loop mechanism for highly efficient tracking, resolution, and feedback.
On the financial front, Tongwei has consistently tailored financial service solutions for its clients since 2007. Tongwei adheres to the philosophy of "a big-picture approach while maintaining meticulous attention to detail," continuously improving user satisfaction by focusing on the finest details. In response to minor issues raised by farmers regarding product bag sewing lines and packaging inkjet codes, Tongwei invested over RMB one million to implement immediate rectifications.
Chairman Liu Hanyuan of the Tongwei Group Board of Directors frequently says, "Be fair, and always view things from the other party's perspective." Throughout its more than 40 years of development, Tongwei has consistently stood in the shoes of the farmers. The Company provides hands-on assistance and subsidies to farmers confronting severe natural disasters, depressed market conditions, or other instances of force majeure, interpreting corporate responsibility through concrete actions.
General Manager Zhang noted that following 44 years of deep technical accumulation, Tongwei's technology has achieved an industry-leading position, constructing a rock-solid technical barrier. Tongwei exercises strict quality control over raw material procurement and the entire manufacturing process. The Company continues to build standardized, intelligent factories to ensure that product quality remains stably leading. Centered on the Quality Policy, the Company focuses on fully upgrading product competitiveness, service capability, and operational quality to continuously elevate user satisfaction. In 2026, Tongwei pledges to continue standing firmly by the Quality Policy. The Company will systematically practice its behavioral guidelines of "technological height, product depth, and user warmth." Driven by the core philosophy of "user satisfaction," Tongwei will continuously upgrade its service capabilities and standards, creating superior value for all users.
The new journey sets sail from this moment forward. Tongwei looks forward to working in close alignment with all partners, confronting industry challenges together, and co-creating a better future for the aquaculture industry.
