On November 30th, LingLong Thailand 10th Anniversary of production Launch & Partners Conference, themed "A Decade’s Journey Forging New Collaborations" was held in Madrid, Spain. LingLong partners from around the world gathered to jointly review the glorious decade of LingLong Thailand and embark on a new chapter of development together.

A Decade of Glory: Setting a New Paradigm for Overseas Factories

LingLong Thailand is the first overseas factory in LingLong's "7+5" global strategic layout and the first tire factory in Thailand established by a Chinese company. Since its groundbreaking in late 2012, LingLong embarked on a journey of overseas expansion. By January 2014, in just 11 months, LingLong Thailand had achieved the offline production of its first passenger car tire, demonstrating the astonishing "LingLong speed." The company continued to make breakthroughs, including the offline production of its first truck and bus tire in 2015, gradually achieving the three major goals of fast construction speed, high technological content, and good comprehensive benefits.

During the project construction, LingLong Thailand introduced over 600 top-tier pieces of equipment from Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, Japan, the United States, and other countries, significantly enhancing the precision and speed of the production process. It focused on producing mid-to-high-end products that are not only environmentally friendly and technologically advanced but also high-value-added, laying a solid foundation for LingLong's sales system to extend into the mid-to-high-end market and enhancing the company's core competitiveness in the international market.

Today, LingLong Thailand has evolved into a world factory with global procurement, international marketing, international manufacturing, and localized management, with an annual production capacity exceeding 17.2 million tires. Its products are exported to regions including North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the Asia-Pacific, with cumulative sales reaching 112 million tires. Additionally, LingLong Thailand has provided support to global OEMs, such as Stellantis and Ford, with a cumulative supply of 1.4185 million tires. Currently, LingLong Thailand has become an important profit pillar and strategic highland for LingLong.

In addition, LingLong Thailand actively strengthens cultural integration between Thailand and China, focuses on environmental protection, pays taxes according to the law, participates in public welfare undertakings, provides substantial assistance to local communities, schools, hospitals, and the Red Cross, establishes harmonious relationships with local governments and people, sets a paradigm for overseas factories, and has received numerous honors such as "Top Ten Successful Enterprises Entering ASEAN" awarded by the ASEAN Business Council and "First-Class Eco-Champion" awarded by the Thailand Board of Investment.

Working Together with Global Partners: Drawing a New Development Blueprint for LingLong Thailand

Throughout LingLong Thailand's vigorous development journey, partners have always played a crucial role. They are both the solid support and the powerful driving force for LingLong Thailand's continuous advancement. During the conference, Wang Feng, Chairman of LingLong Tire, delivered a speech, reviewing the glorious history and remarkable achievements of LingLong Thailand over the past decade and expressing heartfelt gratitude to global partners.

After analyzing the global industry situation, Chairman Wang Feng provided an outlook for LingLong Thailand's future and cooperation with partners. He stated, "As the pioneer factory for LingLong Tire to explore overseas and implement its internationalization strategy, LingLong Thailand has developed into a paradigm for Chinese tire factories overseas, thanks to the strong support of all. We will continue to deepen our cooperation with partners to jointly developing global supply chains, industrial chains, and value chains, optimize production lines, enhance ESG practices, and innovate in marketing strategies, jointly turning LingLong Thailand into an important support base for the company, providing higher-quality, higher-performance products for ASEAN, South Asia, the Middle East, and other regions. We eagerly anticipate continuing to advance together, based on trust and mutually beneficial cooperation.”
