SAF-HOLLAND S.A. has restructured its business in China, with the entire production and administration consolidated in Xiamen. The production of trailer axles has been relocated from the Jinan location to Xiamen, and the Jinan location has been closed.

In order to be closer to customers, Sales and Marketing have been centralized in Shanghai.

Frank Chao (45) is the new General Manager of SAF-HOLLAND (Xiamen) Co. Ltd. Chao has over 22 years of experience in the construction and truck industry.

Trailer axle systems and trailer landing legs are currently produced in Xiamen.

“We will rapidly expand the location into a hub for SAFHOLLAND's entire Asian business, with a principal focus on the developing China transportation market,” says CEO Rudi Ludwig.

The Group expects significant growth in the region over the next four years.

“Products that focus on the price and quality standards of the Asian market will also help us achieving this. Our goal is to offer a complete product range for trucks and trailers from the Xiamen location,” saod Ludwig.

The Group currently employs approximately 270 people in China.
