XCMG has entered a strategic green alliance with Dangote Group, Africa’s largest industrial conglomerate. The partnership marks a significant milestone in advancing sustainable industrial development across the continent.
The alliance will leverage both parties’ strengths in technology, market presence, and sustainability, focusing on green equipment applications, co-creation of sustainable solutions, technical collaboration, and infrastructure development. XCMG will provide tailored solutions to support Dangote Group’s sustainability goals and Africa’s energy transition strategy.
Aliko Dangote, President and CEO of Dangote Group, commented:
"Our strategic collaboration with XCMG lays the foundation for our long-term vision of sustainable growth and operational excellence. By integrating advanced green technologies into our core operations, we will not only reduce our carbon footprint but also set a benchmark for responsible industrial leadership in Africa."
Yang Dongsheng, Chairman and Party Secretary of XCMG Group and XCMG Machinery, said:
"XCMG is honored to partner with Dangote Group to drive Africa’s green industrial development. This collaboration recognizes XCMG’s capabilities in green intelligent equipment manufacturing. Leveraging the strengths and resources of both sides, XCMG is confident in contributing to Africa’s sustainable future."
The alliance builds on a solid foundation of previous cooperation. During the construction of Dangote Refinery, Africa’s largest single-site refining project, XCMG supplied over 2,000 units of equipment, including cranes, concrete machinery, loaders, and road machinery, and deployed hundreds of XCMG staff to support the project. The scale of equipment, range of machinery, and personnel involvement set new records for XCMG projects in Africa, laying a strong foundation for deepening this strategic partnership.
