Regional Layout and Development Opportunities of Sichuan School Pre-prepared Food Industry under the Perspective of Gradient Transfer Theory: A Case Study of Anjing Food

Abstract

As a rapidly growing sector in the food industry, the development of ready-to-eat meals faces challenges in overcoming regional capacity barriers. Achieving sustainable growth requires systematic capacity reallocation. While the market remains concentrated in eastern China, western regions have experienced capacity outflow without establishing structured frameworks. This study examines Anjing Food Co., Ltd. as a case study, analyzing its successful capacity reallocation model to provide actionable strategies and reference frameworks for the industry. The research aims to facilitate coordinated regional capacity transfers in the ready-to-eat meal sector, ultimately advancing sustainable development across China's food supply chain.
