EP制造执行主席Hamidon Abdullah：与中国代工生产商（OEM）的策略合作，表明我们致力于为利益相关者制定更好的盈利能力。

（吉隆坡15日讯）EP制造（EP Manufacturing Bhd ）与中国北京汽车集团（BAIC Motor Corporation Ltd）合作，在大马组装和制造北汽授权车型。

EP制造独资子公司PEPS-JV（马六甲）私人有限公司（简称PJVM）与北汽集团在上周签署了协议。北汽集团隶属于北京汽车集团有限公司（Beijing Automotive Group Co Ltd），是财富世界500强公司和中国最大的汽车制造商之一。

根据10年期协议，PJVM的职责包括在大马组装和制造车辆，确保组装厂在9月1日之前每年生产至少5000辆汽车，并在明年3月1日之前每年生产至少1万辆汽车。

PJVM还必须采购车辆组装和制造所需的所有必要装置、设备、许可证或批准，并承担相关费用。

同时，北汽集团的义务包括授权PJVM组装和制造车辆，为组装和制造提供技术支持和培训，并监督组装过程。

EP制造执行主席Hamidon Abdullah在文告中表示：“与中国代工生产商（OEM）的策略合作，表明我们致力于为利益相关者制定更好的盈利能力。”

KUALA LUMPUR (April 15): EP Manufacturing Bhd (EPMB) said it has teamed up with China-based BAIC Motor Corporation Ltd to assemble and manufacture BAIC’s authorised model vehicles in Malaysia.

The auto parts maker said its wholly-owned unit PEPS-JV (Melaka) Sdn Bhd (PJVM) had a week ago signed an agreement with BAIC, which is part of Beijing Automotive Group Co Ltd, a Fortune Global 500 company and one of China’s largest carmakers.

Under the 10-year agreement, PJVM’s responsibilities include assembling and manufacturing the vehicles in Malaysia, ensuring that the assembly plant has a capacity of at least 5,000 vehicles per year by Sept 1, and at least 10,000 vehicles per year by March 1 next year, said EPMB in a bourse filing on Monday.

PJVM must also procure all necessary devices, equipment, permits, or approvals for vehicle assembly and manufacturing and bear relevant expenses.

BAIC’s obligations, meanwhile, involve authorising PJVM to assemble and manufacture the vehicles, providing technical support and training for assembly and manufacturing, and overseeing the assembly process.

EPMB said the agreement replaces a memorandum of understanding between the group and BAIC entered into in August last year, for the development of BAIC’s BJ40P and X55II sport utility vehicles and right-hand drive electric vehicles for Malaysia and other Southeast Asian right-hand drive markets.

EPMB noted that the latest agreement allows vertical integration of the group’s operations to tap into the expanding automotive market, expanding its income stream, and enhancing the group’s financial stability and long-term prospects.

“The strategic collaborations with original equipment manufacturers from China signify our commitment to charting a course towards better profitability for our stakeholders,” added EPMB executive chairman Hamidon Abdullah in a statement.

Notably, EPMB announced an investment of over RM100 million in October last year to construct an automotive manufacturing plant in Melaka for BAIC and Great Wall Motor vehicles at the Hicom Pegoh Industrial Park in Alor Gajah.

The facility, developed in multiple phases, is expected to create about 1,000 new jobs once fully operational, and will initially produce up to 30,000 vehicles annually.
