According to statistics, the town's existing 12,000 acres of owner chestnut garden, due to aging trees, extensive management, unreasonable structure, less input, less good seeds, low scientific and technological content and other factors, resulting in serious reductions in production, affecting the economic income of the masses, reducing the enthusiasm of the masses for industrial development. In addition, the chestnut fruit is perishable and spoiled, it is extremely difficult to store and preserve freshness at room temperature, and the yield during the mature period is large and the price is low, so the unified management of chestnut acquisition and deep processing is particularly urgent. In order to open up the traditional chestnut sales channels and further expand the deep processing path of chestnut products, the Wangqiao Town Government has successfully introduced Xinyang Shuanghong Liquor Co., Ltd. to enter Wangqiao through investment attraction, transformed and upgraded the original Shangcheng County Minfu Chestnut Distillery, and invested more than 3 million yuan to build a processing workshop with an annual production capacity of 200 tons of chestnut wine. Its ecological chestnut planting demonstration base and Taohuayuan Farm cover an area of about 500 acres, with a seasoning wine workshop, a craft brewing workshop, an ancient brewing workshop and a production and brewing base, and a team of winemaking experts with independent patented technology and a channel network and marketing team that lays out the whole county. For a long time, by carrying forward the basic advantages of Xinyang's high-quality chestnut industry, the ancient chestnut wine brewing technology has been revitalized, and the practice of liquor liqueurization and fashion in the face of the new generation of people has been advocated on the basis of inheriting traditional craftsmanship.

It not only solves the problem of insufficient follow-up funds to drive poor households out of poverty due to the lack of collective economy in the surrounding villages, but also employs peasant households with working ability to work in enterprises to receive labor remuneration, increase income, and increase the guarantee of getting rich. The distillery has an annual output of 200 tons of liquor, Shuanghong Liquor currently uses more than 1,000 tons of chestnuts per year, and the waste materials such as distillers and lees produced are used to raise chickens, pigs and grow mushrooms, providing bottom fertilizer for crops, and further driving more than 100 surrounding households to develop specialty breeding industry.
