Under the agreement, the two companies will collaborate across multiple sectors including petrochemicals, refining, mining, building materials, agriculture, and infrastructure construction, leveraging their respective strengths to pursue joint growth and long-term value creation.
Dangote Group, Africa’s largest diversified industrial conglomerate, operates across refining, petrochemicals, cement, fertilizer, agriculture, food processing, mining, ports, and logistics in Nigeria and several other African countries. The group is currently accelerating capacity expansion and regional market development as part of its strategic ambition to reach US$100 billion in scale by 2030.
As part of the collaboration, XCMG will support Dangote Group through its established African sales and service network, while also facilitating visits by Dangote personnel to China and providing logistical assistance. XCMG will deploy dedicated project teams to develop integrated equipment and service solutions for Dangote projects, particularly in open pit mining, petrochemicals, building materials, and agricultural processing.
The partnership also places strong emphasis on sustainability and innovation. XCMG will deploy its capabilities in complete equipment sets, new energy technologies, and intelligent solutions to support Dangote’s key projects. Both companies will cooperate on the joint development of new electric equipment, promote environmentally friendly project benchmarks, reduce carbon emissions, and lower operational costs.
The agreement sets out a framework for closer cooperation based on mutual trust and shared development goals. Subject to applicable laws and policies, both parties will grant each other preferential consideration in projects arising from the partnership.
The deal reflects Dangote Group’s broader push to deepen industrial capacity across Africa through strategic global partnerships, while aligning with XCMG’s ambition to expand its footprint and service offering on the continent.
