Fujian Province has become the leading hub for the stone industry in China, with over 1,200 stone import and export companies operating alongside more than 6,000 stone processing factories. The province is home to over 500 trading firms engaged in stone exports, more than 10 major stone export ports, and over 10 professional building materials markets. This strong infrastructure has positioned Fujian as the largest stone production province and the primary export base in the country.
Xiamen, a key financial service center between Taiwan and the mainland, plays a crucial role in the development of the stone industry in Fujian. Since 2012, the Xiamen International Stone Trading Center has seen significant growth, with around 70–80 enterprises now established there. Many of these are well-known national and international stone companies. Over 1,200 stone import and export businesses have their roots in Xiamen, while more than 6,000 stone processing plants operate across the city and its surrounding areas. Each year, the Xiamen International Stone Exhibition attracts global attention, drawing comparisons to the world's largest stone exhibition—Verona’s "Sword Finger" event. The center not only boosts local stone processing and trade but also aims to become a global "International Stone Center."
According to data from Xiamen Customs, from January to November 2012, the total stone exports from the Xiamen customs district reached 4.33 million tons, valued at $2 billion. This accounted for 63% of the nation's total stone exports by volume and 70.17% by value during the same period. Fujian continues to lead the country in stone production value, output, and export earnings.
The stone industry in Fujian is most concentrated in Shuitou Town, Nan’an City, known as “China Stone Industry City.†The area is rich in natural stone resources and has a long history of stone processing. It serves as a critical distribution center for people, capital, materials, and information, radiating influence across the Asia-Pacific region. With the support of national economic policies and increased public construction projects, demand for stone has risen significantly, driving the expansion of raw material blocks in Nan’an and Hui’an. Thousands of stone enterprises now import and process stone through the Shihu Port Area.
Additionally, Quanzhou’s Shihu Port is strategically located near Nan’an City, the "Hometown of Chinese Building Materials," and Hui’an County, the "China Stone Carving Capital." This gives it unique geographical advantages. After years of development, Shihu Port has been recognized by many traders as the most important port for imported stone blocks in China. It has evolved from an informal dumping port into a designated unloading point for imported stone. The stone logistics and trading market operates on a daily basis. Currently, the stone import volume at Shihu Port accounts for over 30% of the national total, ranking second in the country after Xiamen Port.
