As one of the top five dairy farmers in the world, Yili Group is aiming for more than dairy farming as its New Health Valley emerges as a potential industrial hub.

Yili Modern Intelligent Health Valley in Hohhot, capital of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, combines grass planting, dairy source development, intelligent manufacturing, technological innovation, cultural and tourism functions and business activities to bring industry closer to city life and be more eco-friendly.

“They use very advanced technology to produce dairy products in so many flavors, and I really appreciate it,” she said.

The valley is a national industrial tourism demonstration benchmark and a national university research and demonstration base with summer as the peak season to welcome tour groups, especially students and other young visitors.
