As China's only star anise production area with a complete industrial chain, Gulong Town in Teng County boasts the longest history of star anise cultivation, boasting the highest quality, largest fruit, and a natural brown-red color.
Gulong offers a complete local service, from picking, withering, drying or steaming, processing, sorting, grinding, packaging, and container transportation, significantly reducing procurement cycles and costs.

Gulong Town boasts a long history of star anise cultivation and boasts over 190,000 mu (approximately 16,000 hectares) of star anise forest. The people of Gulong have always harvested star anise by hand, rather than by natural drop. This method ensures a superior appearance and preserves its aroma.

In terms of processing, Gulong Town has made every effort to streamline all aspects of production, purchase, and sales. It has built eight star anise drying lines and over 50 cold chain storage warehouses. It has also attracted three companies specializing in deep processing, such as those refining star anise oil and shikimic acid. This has led to the registration of 38 star anise professional cooperatives (associations), the establishment of 75 primary star anise processing companies, and six of these companies have met regulatory standards.

In terms of exports, Teng County has gathered the strength of more than 100 member companies to create the "Teng County Gulong Dahong Star Anise Demonstration Zone", formed a professional star anise purchasing and sales team of more than 2,000 people, and established more than 70 fixed sales points across the country, allowing star anise products to be exported to Southeast Asia, the Middle East, the European Union and other countries and regions.

Gulong Star Anise is the perfect choice for customers with long-term, stable purchasing needs.
