Karachi: In a major step toward industrial cooperation and economic development, the Sindh government has announced a partnership with Chinese investors to establish a mini-truck assembly plant in Karachi. The project aims to strengthen Pakistan-China industrial ties and position Karachi as a future hub for automobile manufacturing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The announcement was made by Sindh Senior Minister Sharjeel Inam Memon, who emphasized the strategic importance of the collaboration during the unveiling ceremony of the super mini truck in Bozhou, China. The plant will be set up with the support of Chinese automotive giant Chery Holding and Pedi Technology Company Limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The super mini truck is a remarkable innovation that addresses Pakistan\u2019s logistics needs across both rural and urban areas,” Memon stated. “It represents modern engineering, intelligent design, and environmental adaptability\u2014everything we need in light commercial transport today.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Memon added that the assembly line in Karachi will not only boost local manufacturing and component production but also generate employment opportunities, promote skills training, and facilitate technology transfer to Pakistan\u2019s growing auto sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chinese dignitaries, including Chery Holding Chairman Yin Tongyue, joined Pakistani officials such as Provincial Minister Syed Nasir Hussain Shah and Budget Petroleum Group CEO Zahid Bashir at the event. The collaboration, they said, is a prime example of Pakistan\u2013China industrial partnership underpinned by innovation and mutual growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to the mini-truck project, Memon announced that the Sindh government would soon roll out electric vehicle (EV) charging stations across the province, supporting Pakistan\u2019s broader sustainability goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Experts have welcomed the move, noting that the entry of leading Chinese firms into Pakistan\u2019s automotive and EV market could transform logistics, reduce carbon emissions, and support Pakistan\u2019s transition to cleaner, more efficient transport solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The super mini truck, which can be adapted into a compact vehicle for urban use, is expected to meet growing demand for affordable and sustainable logistics solutions in Pakistan. Its production in Karachi signals a pivotal moment in Pakistan\u2019s industrial journey, with the Sindh government vowing full support through regulatory facilitation, infrastructure development, and workforce training.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
