Port machinery maker steps up global expansion despite COVID-19 headwinds

Shanghai Zhenhua Port Machinery Co, or ZPMC, one of the world's biggest port machinery manufacturers by market share, is ramping up efforts to strengthen other businesses worldwide despite the headwinds caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

As a subsidiary of China Communications Construction Co, a centrally administrated State-owned enterprise, ZPMC is scheduled to deliver 17 units of port machinery to their global clients in countries which include Israel, France, Sri Lanka and Pakistan between June and early July of this year.

Many opportunities are available from efforts by these countries to boost recovery from COVID-19 and this can be seen in their growing demand for manufacturing, mining projects, and transportation infrastructure such as railways, port and shipbuilding businesses.
