Across China, Guangdong Province has the largest number of metal packaging enterprises, with a total of 575 enterprises, accounting for 16.52 of the national total. An examination of the intra-provincial distribution shows that metal packaging enterprises exhibit a pronounced pattern of regional clustering, with significant disparities among different prefecture-level cities. This indirectly reflects differences across regions within Guangdong in terms of industrial foundations, manufacturing scale, and the level of consumer market development.
