FAW TRUCKS Hands Over 296 Customized Trucks for Algeria Railway Project
FAW TRUCKS handed over 296 customized trucks to China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC) at a ceremony held in Changchun, Jilin Province, on November 12. The trucks will be sent to Algeria to support the construction of a 230-kilometer railway project in the central part of the country.
The ceremony was attended by Yu Changxin, General Manager and Deputy Party Secretary of FAW TRUCKS; Lu Yong, General Manager of the Supply Chain Support Center at CCECC; and Wu Yanqin, General Manager of Beijing Fuao International Trade Co., Ltd. Leng Changchun, Assistant General Manager of FAW TRUCKS and General Manager and Party Secretary of FAW International, hosted the event.
The 230-kilometer railway project in central Algeria is an important project under the Belt and Road Initiative. It is expected to improve the regional transport network, connect towns and industrial areas along the railway, and support local economic development.
FAW TRUCKS and CCECC began working together in 2021. Since then, CCECC has purchased more than 700 vehicles from FAW TRUCKS. For this delivery, FAW TRUCKS customized the trucks to handle Algeria’s high temperatures, low rainfall and frequent sandstorms. The upgrades include tires, cooling systems, air intake filtration and chassis protection. The two companies also worked together on vehicle design, production, quality control, transportation and local service support to prepare the trucks for the project’s operating conditions.
Yu Changxin said that 2026 marks the 70th anniversary of the FAW Jiefang CA10 rolling off the production line. FAW TRUCKS will continue to expand its global business under its SPRINT 2030 international strategy. He said the delivery marks another step in the two companies’ cooperation in Belt and Road markets. FAW TRUCKS will provide vehicle maintenance throughout the service life, local technical support and after-sales services to support overseas projects.
Lu Yong praised FAW TRUCKS for its product quality and delivery performance. He said FAW TRUCKS vehicles had performed well in overseas projects with challenging operating conditions, including the Kaka Railway project in Nigeria and projects on Indonesia’s OBI Island. This experience was one of the main reasons CCECC chose FAW TRUCKS again. He also expressed interest in further cooperation in customized vehicles, local service networks, new energy vehicles for overseas markets and long-term vehicle maintenance.
Wu Yanqin said that, as the project’s overseas service provider, her company plans to establish a spare parts warehouse in Algeria and set up a dedicated service team. Services will include round-the-clock technical support, rapid repairs, the supply of original spare parts and maintenance staff training. These measures are designed to keep the trucks operating reliably and support the progress of the railway project.
During the ceremony, FAW TRUCKS presented CCECC with a golden key as a symbol of their partnership.
The delivery strengthens cooperation between FAW TRUCKS and CCECC in overseas infrastructure projects. Both companies plan to continue working together to support railway construction and other infrastructure projects in international markets.
