As the first multi-million-dollar project invested by Jiangsu Province in an RCEP member country after the RCEP came into effect, the project has a total investment of 1.906 billion RMB, covering an area of approximately 180,000 square meters. It will have a production capacity of 5 million semi-steel radial tires and 900,000 all-steel radial tires. After reaching full production, it is projected to generate additional revenue of 2.2 billion RMB and a profit of 250 million RMB for the company. This project will not only effectively address local employment issues but also greatly stimulate local economic development, achieving win-win cooperation.

 

The project is located in the Special Economic Zone of Sihanoukville Port, Cambodia, which is the only national-level economic and trade cooperation zone with a bilateral government agreement between China and Cambodia. It is a landmark project on the "Belt and Road" initiative and has been hailed as a model of pragmatic cooperation between China and Cambodia. With remarkable geographical advantages and comprehensive supporting facilities, it provides significant advantages for the company's overseas layout.

 

It is reported that the tires produced by this investment project will primarily carry the company's CELIMO brand and be sold to countries and regions such as the United States, Europe, and Brazil. Leveraging the intelligent production base and the advantages of high-quality products and services, the Cambodia project has already signed strategic cooperation agreements with several leading local customers in the United States, Europe, and other regions.
