New Industries
At present, most of Tai Po's industry is
accommodated in the Tai Po InnoPark (Figure 18)
and the mixed industrial and office buildings such
as Tai Ping Industrial Park (Figure 19) at Ting Kok
Road, with the rest in a few conventional ground
floor premises and squatter structures.
In 1974, the Government decided to establish
Hong Kong's first planned industrial estate
in Tai Po. Some 88 ha of reclaimed land in
the northeastern part of the New Town was
earmarked for special industries which, by Figure 19: Tai Ping Industrial Park
applying a relatively high level of technology,
helped to broaden Hong Kong's industrial base. Such industries cannot operate efficiently in
conventional flatted factories. In 2021, Tai Po Industrial Estate was repositioned as “Tai Po InnoPark”
with a view to promoting the development of high-end manufacturing industries and “re-industrialisation”.
