The expansion of Zoomlion's operations in Africa, driven by China's zero-tariff policy and the upcoming China-Africa Economic and Trade Expo, is expected to positively impact Zoomlion's revenue and market share. This will also lead to increased infrastructure development and agricultural mechanization across Africa, benefiting the economies of countries like Morocco, Egypt, and Tanzania.

Heavy Machinery Construction Agriculture

Zoomlion is significantly expanding its local operations in Africa, driven by China's expanded zero-tariff policy for 53 African countries and the upcoming 2026 China-Africa Economic and Trade Expo in Morocco. As part of this strategy, Zoomlion recently opened a new subsidiary in Casablanca, Morocco, to enhance equipment availability, spare parts support, and on-the-ground service capabilities across North Africa. The company, which entered Africa in 2007, has a broad presence with construction, mining, and agricultural machinery, supporting major infrastructure projects in countries like Egypt, Tanzania, Chad, Senegal, and Mauritania. Zoomlion's revenue in Africa grew 157% year-over-year in 2025, and it plans to further showcase its products and lead specialized events at the expo to facilitate exchanges on smart agricultural machinery.
