The 3rd China-Africa Economic and Trade Expo, scheduled to run in Changsha from June 29 to July 2, is a highly-anticipated event for Wang Kuiguang, chairman of the Hunan Agricultural UAV Co., Ltd. During the expo, the company will sign drone deals worth over 30 million yuan with several African countries. Changsha-made drones are designed to be used over farmland in Africa.

As a local drone manufacturer based in the Hunan Pilot Free Trade Zone Changsha Area, the Hunan Agricultural UAV Co., Ltd. sells drone products nationwide. Its products have also been exported to 67 countries in Southeast Asia and Africa. This has further raised the profile of Changsha's intelligent manufacturing. In the first half of 2023, the company has received drone orders with a total value exceeding 150 million yuan.
