Ronggui Sub-district (Chinese: 容桂街道) is a sub-district in Shunde, Foshan, Guangdong, China, which is at the southeast of Shunde and a part of Shunde City Zone. It was formed by the merging of Rongqi Town (容奇镇) and Guizhou Town (桂州镇). It has a resident population of 460,000 with its total area of 80 square kilometers.

It is one of the largest production bases of electric appliances in China. Several electric appliance manufacturers, such as Rongsheng (容声), Hisense Kelon (海信科龙), Wanjiale (万家乐), Galanz (格兰仕) and Wanhe (万和), are headquartered in Ronggui.

Ronggui was named after Rongqi Town and Guizhou Town. Long ago, Rongqi and Guizhou were two apart towns which were both administrated by Shunde district. After Feb. 2, 2000, Rongqi town and Guizhou town were rescinded and Ronggui subdistrict was established.

There are 23 neighborhood committees and 3 village committees which are under the jurisdiction of Ronggui Subdistrict.

Since the Chinese economic reform began in 1978, the people of Shunde were given full control over their geographical position and culture. This has allowed Ronggui, once a traditional agricultural county, to gradually develop into a modern industrial boomtown. Until 2012, the GDP of Ronggui had reached 38 billion and 660 million yuan. The industrial and commercial tax revenue of Ronggui had reached 5 billion and 186 million yuan and the balance of savings deposits of Ronggui's residents had reached 29 billion and 35 million yuan. Meanwhile, there were many famous industrial companies founded in Ronggui. Such as Rongsheng (容声), Hisense Kelon (海信科龙), Wanjiale (万家乐), Galanz (格兰仕) and Wanhe (万和).
