Sanlian Forging Completes Moroccan Subsidiary Registration with $18 Million Investment

Chinese auto parts manufacturer Sanlian Forging has completed the registration of its wholly-owned Moroccan subsidiary, Sanlian Technology Morocco Co., Ltd., in the Mohammed VI Tangier Tech City industrial zone. The subsidiary was registered on August 17, 2026.

The project has undergone multiple revisions since its initial announcement in 2024. Originally planned with an investment of $4 million, the company later increased the ODI (overseas direct investment) registration amount to $18 million, reflecting expanded project scope and construction needs. The investment location also shifted from an initial plan for Tangier to Rabat due to land constraints, then back to Tangier after securing land in the Tanger Tech zone.

The Moroccan subsidiary will focus on manufacturing automotive electrical and electronic equipment and supplying auto parts. The subsidiary is 100% owned by the company's Singapore-based entity, Sanlian Technology Singapore Pte. Ltd.. The company supplies forged parts for chassis, steering, and suspension systems to major automotive groups including Bosch, ZF, Magna, Valeo, Dana, and Linamar.

This investment is part of the company's strategy to increase sales, expand international business, and capture a larger share of overseas markets.

The company has acknowledged risks related to differences in political, legal, and market environments across China, Singapore, and Morocco, and plans to strengthen management to mitigate these risks.
