Chinese car maker Chery plans to venture into more African countries

After seeing constant progress as far as sales are concerned, Chinese carmaker Chery plans to venture into neighbouring countries.

The vehicle maker has seen steady growth in South Africa and Executive Deputy General Manager, Tiny Liu says they still plan to add more dealerships in the country.

This comes following a stellar year in South Africa, and Liu has outlined their plans to broaden its sales and dealer network into neighbouring African countries.

While a recent press release detailing the impressive 10 000 unit sales milestone within their first year back in Mzansi, Liu, talks about their grand aspirations of expanding into neighbouring African countries.

“We will continue to add dealers in South Africa where we see an opportunity to better support our Chery family. At the same time, we will look at possible expansion in neighbouring countries,” says Liu per Car Mag.

“We would not have been able to achieve this massive milestone without the support and hard work of our dealer network. Some of these dealers also celebrate their first year in November, while other dealers have only joined more recently.”

In the meantime, the freshly revived automaker has grown its dealer footprint significantly and boasts 74 fully operational dealers across the country as they offer sales, service, and after-sales support to clients and provide peace of mind with impressive warranty plans.

Having entered the South African market in 2021 with a compact crossover SUV, the Chinese company has impressed with perceived quality and impressive value for money while constantly adding to its line-up with new models and small updates.

The car magazine reports that Chery boasts 74 fully operational dealers across South Africa while also offering sales, service, and after-sales support.
