As 2024 draws to a close, Shaanxi Automobile Holding Group (Shacman) proudly reflects on a year defined by global expansion and innovation. At the heart of this success is Shacman, Shacman’s internationally renowned heavy-duty truck brand, which has become a symbol of China’s industrial prowess and a trusted partner for nations worldwide.
Global Leadership in Heavy-Duty Trucks
With over 36,000 Shacman trucks operating across 140+ countries and regions, Shacman has cemented its role as a global heavyweight. In 2024 alone, Shacman exports surged to 56,000 units, capturing over 20% of China’s heavy-duty truck export market—meaning one in every five Chinese heavy trucks sold overseas bears the Shacman badge.
This achievement is no accident. Since delivering its first 13 “Yan’an” off-road vehicles abroad in 1988, Shacman has spent 36 years refining its international strategy. Today, its footprint spans the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) nations, where 90% of Shacman exports are deployed, powering infrastructure projects like Indonesia’s mega nickel mines and Pakistan’s Dasu Hydropower Station.
Localization Strategy: From ‘Going Global’ to ‘Growing Local’
Shacman’s secret lies in its “One Country, One Truck” philosophy. By tailoring products to local needs, the brand has expanded its portfolio from 448 to 692 specialized models in 2024. For example, the X3000 Desert Tractor, engineered for Middle Eastern climates, outperforms European rivals in harsh sandstorms. Meanwhile, its Offset Port Tractor dominates terminals in Saudi Arabia, Singapore, and beyond, making Shacman the top choice for global logistics giants.
But localization goes beyond products. Shacman has established 17 overseas production bases, 40 international offices, and a sprawling service network of 550+ service centers and 240+ parts channels. In Central Asia, Shacman commands 40% of the heavy-duty truck market, proving its ability to integrate into local economies while driving progress.
Service Excellence: Building Trust Beyond Borders
When an Indonesian logistics company faced downtime due to a non-Shacman truck breakdown, SHAANQI’s team stepped in to assist—a gesture that turned the client into a lifelong partner. This story epitomizes Shacman’s commitment to “customer-first” service.
To support its growing global fleet, Shacman has deployed cross-border service networks along key trade corridors, including Africa’s logistics routes and Eurasia’s land transport channels. This ensures rapid response times and reinforces the reliability of “Made in China, Trusted Worldwide.”
Collaborative Ecosystem: Strength in Unity
Shacman’s success has propelled Shaanxi’s automotive supply chain onto the world stage. Partners like Fast Gear and Hande Axle have joined forces to “sail overseas together,” creating a robust industrial ecosystem.
Hande Axle, a global leader in axle manufacturing, exported its first technology in 2007 and now serves 26 countries. In 2024, its exports rose by 12%, with plans to expand into Southeast Asia’s booming sector. Similarly, Fast Gear is accelerating its global footprint, targeting 3-5 new overseas offices in 2025 and eyeing premium markets in Europe and North America.
A Future Forged in Partnership
“From product exports to ecosystem globalization, SHAANQI and its partners are redefining China’s automotive industry,” says Hou Yuhui, Director of Shaanxi Automotive Industry Development Research Center. “Together, we’re not just selling trucks—we’re building bridges of opportunity.”
As 2025 approaches, Shacman remains steadfast in its mission: to drive sustainable growth, empower communities, and deliver world-class quality wherever the road leads. Join Shacman on this journey—where every mile traveled is a step toward shared prosperity.
