Midea Station is named because it is close to Midea Group's headquarters. Although Guangzhou's subway station naming rules prohibit the names of commercial organizations from being used in station naming, this station is not in Guangzhou but in Foshan and is not subject to this restriction. Therefore, it is the first and possibly the only station in the Guang-Fo metro network that is entirely named after a commercial organization.^[4]

History

The station was handed over to the '3 Powers' on 12 November 2021, for territorial management and operation of the station and facilities.^[5]
