The Fashion Capital of Guangzhou, which has Shijing sub-district as its core, is located in the southern part of Baiyun. It spans 7.9 square kilometers and is a key development platform for the district. In October 2025, the Fashion Capital's industrial park unveiled its initial design, leading to a leap in fashion development.

Tongli International Fashion Harbor, a landmark in the Fashion Capital, covers nearly 100,000 sq m. It combines trade, design, showcasing and e-commerce, creating a digital platform for the entire industrial chain.

Long Wei, a manager at Tongli International Fashion Harbor, said the transformation of the industrial park inside the Fashion Capital, from an old factory to a modern fashion hub, reflects its alignment with the Fashion Capital's vision, incorporating elements like glass facades and modern landscaping.

"This makes the entire park look both industrial and stylish," Long said.

He noted that Fashion Harbor aims to attract more designers, brands, and supply chain companies to create a vibrant industry cluster. "We hope the Fashion Capital is not just a name, but a tangible, warm, and vibrant new urban landmark," he added.

Fenghong (GZ) Trading, a retailer of the Skechers brand, has benefited from the Fashion Capital's strategic location and comprehensive fashion industrial chain.

"The government's supportive policies, including market renovation, rent reduction, and tax incentives, have significantly reduced operational costs," said a manager of the company.
