XCMG
Brazil Manufacturing Base is the first wholly-owned production base of
XCMG in its internationalization process. Covering an area of 800,000 m2 and with the total investment of $200 million, this production base
will boast the production capability of 7000 pieces of construction
machinery each year, including cranes, excavators, loaders, road rollers
and graders. The establishment of this production base will facilitate
XCMG to accelerate its overseas expansion and global deployment as well
as build a local XCMG in South America, which will lead to a larger
production scale and a higher turnover. Accordingly, it will stimulate
the development of the upper stream industry and lead Chinese
enterprises engaged in construction machinery components to the global
market.
Mr Cao Xinping said that XCMG focused on its global deployment and
established the first large-scale company integrating purchasing,
manufacturing and sales by benefiting from the rapid development of
Brazil’s economy, sound political environment and a bright market
prospect. Based in Pouso Alegre，XCMG’s
manufacturing base is an important advance of its international
strategy as well as ties of friendship linking people in Pouso Alegre
and Xuzhou. It will bring lots of positive benefits such as improving
the economic level of Pouso Alegre, creating more jobs and helping
relevant industries to develop. As an enterprise with high social
responsibility, XCMG is always adhering to the philosophy of running
business in a scientific way, paying tax according to the law, being
kind to its employees, paying attention to safe production and
protecting the environment. We sincerely hope that Pouso Alegre will
regard XCMG as its own enterprise, and we believe that people in Pouso
Alegre will provide high quality service for XCMG. I have every
confidence that with the international cooperation, we will have more
opportunities in the future, and XCMG will have a better prospect in
Brazil!
President Wang Min said in his speech that Brazil and the American
market are the top priority of XCMG’s internationalization process. Why
does XCMG choose Brazil? There are twofold reasons. First, Brazil is the
sixth largest economy in the world, which is abundant with great
potential and prime opportunities for major construction projects.
Second, with the well-established marketing and sales networks in Brazil
and America as well as a large group of regular clients, XCMG has a
turnover of about $200 million in Brazil, which enjoys rapid and
sustained growth. It is estimated that XCMG Brazil Manufacturing Base
will have been completed and put into production by 2013, and its
turnover will be $500 million in 2015.
President Wang Min stressed that XCMG Brazil Manufacturing Base will
uphold the principle of integrity and win-win cooperation by making good
relationships with the local government, local people, local
distributors and the end users, looking to the future and seeking common
development. XCMG will try its best to bring good economic and social
benefits to Pouso Alegre, Minas Gerais and even the whole Brazil with its good quality products and services.
