Building Long-Term Trust Through Real Industrial Responsibility
  • Integrity & Trust

    HG believes trust is built through transparency, responsibility, and long-term commitment.
    We communicate honestly, deliver realistically, and focus on sustainable partnerships rather than short-term transactions.
    Long-term cooperation begins with trust.

  • Collaboration

    HG believes successful food factories are built through close collaboration between engineering, manufacturing, service teams, and customers.
    We respect different markets, cultures, and operational requirements, working together to solve challenges and create long-term value.
    Complex manufacturing challenges require collective expertise.

  • Reliability

    HG takes responsibility for every production line, every project, and every commitment.
    Stable performance, long-term operating capability, and continuous support are among the most important industrial standards at HG.
    Reliability is not a promise.
    It is proven through years of operation.

Operate with a builder’s ethos, not just a supplier’s mindset.
  • Responsibility

    HG believes responsibility goes beyond machine delivery.
    Our responsibility is to help customers achieve stable production, reliable performance, sustainable profitability, and long-term business growth.
    Because a successful project is measured not by shipment, but by results in the factory.

  • Problem Solving

    HG believes real industrial value comes from solving production challenges.
    Process know-how, engineering capability, and decades of manufacturing experience create stronger
    solutions than specifications alone.
    Machines can be copied.
    Experience cannot.

  • Customer Success

    HG grows together with its customers.
    By improving productivity, product quality, production efficiency, and market competitiveness, we
    create sustainable value and long-term partnerships.
    Customer success is not an endpoint.
    It is the foundation for long-term cooperation.

Continuously drive industrial progress and self-improvement
  • Innovation

    HG continuously advances process engineering, manufacturing standards, and industrial technologies to create more efficient, more reliable, and more sustainable food production systems.
    Innovation is not about adding features.
    It is about solving real manufacturing challenges.

  • Continuous Learning

    HG believes industrial excellence is built through constant learning, accumulated experience, and shared knowledge.
    Fifty years of manufacturing heritage is not a destination.
    It is a process of continuous improvement.

  • Execution Excellence

    HG values discipline, efficiency, and long-term results.
    Real industrial capability is not defined by promises.
    It is defined by delivering stable performance, every day, over decades.

The Story Behind the Growth of HG’s Food Machinery Business
The Early Years of HG
The Early Years of HG

As China entered the era of economic reform and opening-up, a new market economy began to emerge.

At that time, Jiang Jinxiang, founder of HG, was serving as the director of a state-owned enterprise, managing thousands of employees and building a stable career. When the opportunity for state-owned enterprise reform appeared, he made the decisive choice to take on the challenge.

In the early stage, he was entrusted with the management of eight factories. This responsibility not only reflected recognition of his leadership but also marked an important step in advancing industrial development.

During this period, many industries were filled with opportunity. The automotive sector in particular attracted large numbers of investors due to its strong returns.

However, Jiang Jinxiang was not driven by short-term profits. Instead, he turned his attention to the food machinery industry — a field that was less visible but essential to long-term industrial development.

Commitment to Food Machinery and Innovation

Jiang Jinxiang believed deeply in the importance of food to people's lives. Having grown up during a time of material scarcity, he understood how essential stable food production was to society and how important food machinery could be in improving efficiency and quality.

With this vision, he led his team into the food machinery industry. From the beginning, HG focused on the development of high-end, fully automated production lines.

At that time, many foreign companies entered the Chinese market with advanced technology and equipment, dominating large parts of the food and beverage industry.

This situation strengthened Jiang Jinxiang’s determination to pursue independent technological development and reduce reliance on imported equipment.

Bringing Advanced Technology to China

Under the leadership of Jiang Jinxiang, the company actively introduced advanced food machinery technologies from Europe and the United States, while continuously improving and adapting them through independent innovation.

After years of dedication, HG's equipment gradually gained recognition in the market. HG machinery has supported the production of well-known brands such as Pringles potato chips, Lay's potato chips, Want Want rice crackers, and Kraft biscuits.

However, Jiang Jinxiang's vision went far beyond business success. He believed that by localizing equipment and reducing production costs, more domestic companies would be able to participate in the rapidly growing food and beverage industry.

Giving Back to the Community

Jiang Jinxiang's dedication is reflected not only in his entrepreneurial achievements but also in his strong sense of social responsibility.

He has invested in road construction to improve local transportation and donated to schools to support education in underdeveloped areas.

In his view, giving back to society is not only an expression of gratitude but also a responsibility every entrepreneur should undertake.

A Pioneer in China's Food Machinery Industry

From the director of a state-owned enterprise to a pioneer in the food machinery industry, Jiang Jinxiang has built an extraordinary entrepreneurial journey over several decades.

With determination, vision, and unwavering dedication, he has made significant contributions to the development of China's food machinery industry.

His story reflects not only the perseverance of an entrepreneur, but also the growing strength of Chinese manufacturing.

Looking ahead, HG will continue its commitment to innovation and contribute to the advancement of the global food machinery industry.
