Presence of the Company’s Top Leaders

Among those confirmed are Yang Dongsheng, CEO & Chairman of XCMG Group, Li Hanguang, President of XCMG in Brazil and South America, and Tian Dong, Vice-General Manager of the region.

The visit of the top leaders reinforces the multinational’s commitment to Brazil and South America.

The company has been expanding its presence through investments in technology, business expansion, and sustainability.

The program will include thematic panels, business meetings, and presentations of solutions that reflect XCMG’s global strategy.

The focus will be on productivity, energy efficiency, and industrial innovation, connecting different sectors and encouraging new strategic partnerships.

Brazil as a Protagonist in the Global Strategy

For Pérsio Briante, CEO of Grupo Extra Máquinas and ambassador of the event, the realization of Brazil Productive XCMG is more than a corporate meeting.

He considers the event a historical milestone for the integration of Brazil and China, which expands business opportunities, technology, and innovation.

The cooperation between the nations strengthens the production chain involving producers, miners, builders, logistics operators, and machinery manufacturers.

Thus, the meeting reinforces Brazil’s role as an economic and technological protagonist in Latin America.

XCMG’s Growth in Brazil and the World

According to Amanda Machado, Director of New Business at XCMG, advancements in Brazil are reflected not only in job creation but also in continuous innovation.

In 2021, the company grew 210% compared to 2020 and thus achieved a revenue of R$ 1 billion, reinforcing the confidence of the national market.

Currently, investments are concentrated in strategic sectors such as mining, construction, and cranes, thus proving the company’s solidity in its sustainable expansion plan.

The strategy remains aligned with the global decarbonization agenda and, therefore, prioritizes electric, hybrid, and connected equipment, ensuring competitiveness in light of new environmental demands.

Since 2011, the presence in Brazil has expanded with dealership networks, strategic branches, and strengthened after-sales services, which consolidated the brand’s trust and reach nationally.

International Trajectory and Historical Relevance

Founded in 1943 in the city of Xuzhou, Jiangsu province, XCMG started as a repair factory for mechanical equipment related to the military industry.

Later, in 1989, it consolidated as XCMG Group by unifying several factories in the region and, furthermore, significantly expanded its organizational structure.

In 2012, it opened an industrial park with over 2 million m² in China and thus established itself as one of the largest in the sector.

Shortly thereafter, in 2016, it ranked among the top ten manufacturers in the world in the construction machinery segment, thereby strengthening its global presence.

In 2023, it made the Fortune Global 500 list and, in 2024, achieved the fourth position worldwide according to the Yellow Table ranking.

Today, the multinational operates in 190 countries and simultaneously employs around 30,000 employees, sustaining its leadership in the Chinese market for 34 years.

XCMG’s Growth in Brazil and the World

International Trajectory and Historical Relevance

The Soviet Union spent 22 years drilling into the Earth’s crust and reached a depth of 12,262 meters — they found water where it was thought impossible, hydrogen bubbling from the rock, granite that is 2.7 billion years old, and temperatures of 180 degrees that melted the drill bits.

Egypt wants to draw 10 million cubic meters of water from the Nile per day into the desert, irrigate a new agricultural frontier, and build a city where there is currently only sand.

Norway is drilling 27 kilometers of rock 392 meters below the bottom of a fjord to build the world’s largest and deepest underwater road tunnel — when completed, a 21-hour journey will be reduced to 10.

An astronaut spent 340 days in space while his twin brother stayed on Earth, and NASA found a “rejuvenating” effect, genes, microbiome, cognition, and immune system that revealed the biological cost of living outside the planet.

After 14 years of construction and a diplomatic crisis that nearly led to a military confrontation over control of the Nile, Ethiopia inaugurated the largest hydroelectric power plant in Africa — the dam is 170 meters high, holds 74 billion cubic meters of water, and generates 5,150 megawatts.

China has just successfully tested the world’s first ground effect maritime vehicle, a craft that flies up to 6 meters above the water at 200 km/h, uses quantum technology and 6G communication, and can rescue patients in the middle of the ocean.

Brazil will face a week of climatic extremes with temperatures ranging from 0 degree in Serra Gaúcha to 36 degrees in the Southeast, rainfall of up to 200 millimeters in the North and Northeast, and a polar air mass that promises to be the most intense of 2026.

The R$ 61.7 billion deficit in government accounts in 2025 will trigger the fiscal framework’s mechanisms for the first time, and starting in 2027, personnel spending will only be able to grow 0.6% above inflation, which could freeze salary adjustments and public service entrance exams.

Prepare your heavy umbrella: Maranhão, Piauí, and Ceará go on alert at the end of April with up to 100 mm of rain per day, winds that could reach 100 km/h, risk of flooding and lightning strikes, as the northern coast of the Northeast becomes the main corridor for storms.
