Africa: the arena of Chinese heavy industry
At present, China is the largest trade partner of Africa, and Africa is a new destination for Chinese enterprises to invest abroad. As early as 2002, the Chinese machinery enterprise Sany Limited by Share Ltd sold the first pump to Africa.

Xiao Jiang said, by focusing on the way to build a perfect sales and service system, customers "the impression of 'made in China" is gradually improving.
In addition to its remarkable achievements in traditional engineering machinery and equipment, the South African region has also actively promoted the new business of the group to go to sea, and has been actively coordinating with the South African governments and industries in the new businesses such as housing industrialization projects, intelligent ports, wind power, mineral exploitation, oil and gas chemical projects.
At present, the total sales of 31 in the central and southern parts of Africa are over $500 million, with more than 4000 sets of equipment insured. The large tonnage crawler crane, truck, excavator market share and brand awareness are in the forefront of the industry.

In addition to the KUSILE power plant, South Africa 2010 World Cup Stadium, Zimbabwe, Angola Luanda port coal mining project, Accra water supply plant and Zambia's Garner - Wei Qingge was mine...... 31, the equipment is widely applied in many key projects and projects in southern Africa. It not only sets up a good image of Chinese brand, but also helps to develop the economy in South Africa.
National machine heavy industry Africa project equipment
