Other cities included in the line-up are Changsha, Dalian, Chengdu, Guangzhou and Qingdao.
Fan favourites including Manchester Bitter and Earl Grey IPA are among the beers that will be available in the Chinese market. Marble has shipped a total of 14 beers to its latest market.
The brewery, which began life in Manchester pub The Marble Arch before expanding in 2019 to a site in Salford, already exports to Japan and to other countries in Europe including Italy, Finland, Sweden, Belgium and Holland.
Paul Plowman, the company’s sales director, told Salford Now that China is the fastest growing craft beer market in the world.
