Baowu Steel Group is referred to as the aircraft carrier of China’s iron and steel sector. Its output of raw steel is said to be the world’s 2nd and ranks 1st domestically in China. Wuhan Iron and Steel (Group) Corp. which has become a subsidiary of the China Baowu Steel Group, shares geographic proximity with the World Military Games. 

Wuhan Iron and Steel (Group) Corp. will provide Wugang Xian Huoji, a soda drink which has a 60-year history in Wuhan Iron and Steel, at the 2019 World Military Games as the designated carbonated beverage.
