Yi Jia Ethnic Garments, a company located in the China Muslim Industrial Park in Wuzhong, Ningxia Autonomous Region, is a subordinate of Qinghai Yi Jia Bukhara Group Ltd.

The company's Wuzhong factory produces 1000 hats, 300,000 prayer mats and 400,000 Arabian robes every year, 95% of which are exported to Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Pakistan, Nigeria and other foreign countries.

Wuzhong is known as the hometown of the Hui nationality in China, and Islam-related industries are dominant in this region. In order to increase industry production capacity, Wuzhong is building the China Muslim Industrial Park and focusing on developing dairy, meat, cereals, oilseeds, snack foods, clothing and supply industries geared towards Muslim consumers.

There are now more than 45 clothing and supplies companies for Muslims in this industrial park. In the first half of 2014, the total output value of this industrial park was 4.653 billion yuan, making it the biggest industry center for halal food and Islam-related products in China's northwest region. With the development of this industry, Wuzhong's industrial capacity has been increased.
