Traveling to the Dande Industrial Park in Bengo Province, Angola, the local industrialization construction has achieved a new breakthrough. Previously, Zhonggong International and Huatong Angola Industrial jointly completed the successful delivery of a 1.08 billion yuan cooperation order for the first phase of the electrolytic aluminum project, building a stable and trusting cooperation bridge between the two parties. With the continuous release of expansion demand in the local aluminum industry, the plan to expand production lines has been put on the agenda. Zhonggong International has won the second phase general contracting contract with its complete EPC full chain service capability, and a large overseas order of 1.717 billion yuan has been officially finalized, injecting Chinese manufacturing strength into the upgrading of local manufacturing in Africa and opening up new growth points for the company's overseas business growth.

Large overseas orders finalized

According to a notice from Zhonggong International, its wholly-owned subsidiary Zhonggong International Engineering Jiangsu Company has signed a contract with Huatong Angola Industry, a subsidiary of Huatong Cable, for the Angola Huatong Electrolytic Aluminum Phase II project with a total amount of 1.717 billion yuan. The project is located in Dande Industrial Park, Bengo Province, with a newly built electrolytic aluminum production line with an annual output of 120000 tons. The enterprise is responsible for the overall design, equipment procurement, installation, and commissioning work, with a construction period of 24 months. The previous cooperation between the two parties had solid results, with a similar business transaction amount of 1.08 billion yuan in the previous fiscal year. The first phase project was successfully delivered and confirmed revenue, becoming a solid foundation for this second phase cooperation.

Drive performance and expand the market

The project implementation conforms to the industrial upgrading needs of countries along the the Belt and Road, continues to strengthen the implementation capacity of enterprises' overseas industrial projects, expands the market share and brand awareness of similar projects in Africa, and fully matches the long-term high-quality development plan of enterprises. Overseas business is the core support of enterprise revenue, with overseas revenue of 7.391 billion yuan in 2025, accounting for 63.90% of total revenue. International engineering contracting business supports the overall operation of the enterprise. Keywords: Angola electrolytic aluminum, overseas EPC project, the Belt and Road overseas project

Global Engineering Layout Forming

Overseas projects of enterprises generally adopt the EPC general contracting model, integrating various resources of design, manufacturing, and construction, covering the entire industry chain of project development, financing, and construction. The market territory continues to expand, with business covering Asia, Africa, America, Eastern Europe, and a constantly improving global business system. The landing of the Angola electrolytic aluminum phase II project is an important step for the enterprise to deepen its cultivation of the African physical industry track. Relying on mature complete engineering output capabilities, it continues to explore opportunities for overseas infrastructure industry projects and steadily improves its international business scale.Editor/Li Xiaohua
