Recently, Mr. Yan Jian, Vice President of CENTER International Group Co., Ltd., participated as a representative of mainland enterprises in a business delegation led by Mr. John Lee Ka-chiu, Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, on a visit to Qatar and Kuwait in the Middle East. The visit yielded fruitful outcomes. Last week, Mr. Yan received an official letter of appreciation from the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) in recognition of his contributions to the delegation's success.

This business delegation, personally led by Mr. John Lee Ka-chiu, Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, marked a new chapter in Hong Kong's history as the first joint visit to the Middle East by mainland and Hong Kong enterprises. The delegation was robust, comprising approximately 20 leading figures from renowned mainland and Hong Kong companies spanning sectors such as construction, new energy, industry and commerce, and innovation technology. The purpose of this visit was to seize the opportunities presented by the Belt and Road Initiative and to deepen cooperation between Hong Kong and Middle Eastern countries in areas including infrastructure development, investment, innovation and technology, and sustainable development.

As a key member of the delegation, Vice President Yan Jian actively participated in numerous high-level meetings, business forums, industry networking sessions, and corporate visits held in Qatar and Kuwait.

Proactive Promotion and Demonstration of Corporate Strength: Vice President Yan Jian presented CENTER International Group's leading technologies, extensive experience, and numerous successful cases in high-end metal enclosure systems, ecological management, building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV), and integrated solar-storage-charging solutions to political and business leaders in the Middle East. This showcased the capabilities and innovative spirit of Chinese enterprises on the international stage.
In-depth Dialogue and Exploration of Collaboration Opportunities: Engaging in substantive discussions with Middle Eastern partners, Vice President Yan Jian addressed topics of mutual interest, including infrastructure development, green building solutions, sustainable energy initiatives, and investment opportunities. These constructive exchanges delved into potential areas for future collaboration.
Forging Cooperation and Reaching Strategic Consensus: Through proactive efforts to explore partnership opportunities, CENTER International Group successfully signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Jiangsu Luyi Investment Co., Ltd. This achievement not only strengthens the company's foothold in the Middle Eastern market and expands its business scale but also actively supports the Hong Kong Trade Development Council in fulfilling its critical role as both a "super connector" and a "super value-adder" between mainland China and the Middle East.

This high-level visit has yielded significant and fruitful outcomes. Not only was a Memorandum of Understanding successfully signed, but more importantly, a high-level dialogue mechanism was established, fostering mutual understanding and laying a solid foundation for broader future cooperation.
Following the conclusion of the visit, the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) sent an official letter of appreciation to CENTER International Group Co., Ltd., expressing high praise and sincere gratitude for Vice President Yan Jian’s active participation and strong support during the delegation’s visit. This letter serves as official recognition of the efforts and value contributed by CENTER International Group and Vice President Yan Jian in this important diplomatic and economic mission.
CENTER International Group Co., Ltd. will seize this opportunity to anchor its development in the Middle Eastern market, leveraging its professional expertise in high-end metal enclosure systems, ecological management, building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV), and integrated solar-storage-charging solutions. By capitalizing on Hong Kong's strengths as an international hub, the company aims to deeply explore the business potential in regions along the Belt and Road, particularly in the Middle East. This effort will further deepen existing collaborations, expand the scope of cooperation, and contribute to enhancing economic and trade exchanges and fostering mutual benefits between China and the Middle East.

Driven by a shared vision for green development opportunities, both parties have signed an EPC construction contract and a strategic cooperation agreement, outlining two key collaborative directions:
Aged Roof Renovation and Green Upgrading:
Thai Poly Group will invest in renovating and green upgrading the aged roofs of its Rayong factory in Thailand, adopting CENTER's BIPV solution. The project is designed with an installed capacity of 30 MW. Based on estimates, it is projected to generate a cumulative power output of 1.114 billion kWh over 25 years, equivalent to saving 350,000 tons of standard coal and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 1.11 million tons and sulfur dioxide emissions by 33,400 tons. With an expected investment payback period of only 3.2 years, the project achieves a multi-dimensional win-win outcome in environmental and economic benefits.
Collaborative Innovation in Sustainable Technologies:
Both parties will jointly conduct applied research on green technologies such as BIPV, systematically enhancing the sustainability of Thai Poly Group's entire industry chain and improving the environmental performance of products throughout their lifecycle.
This contract signing and strategic cooperation mark a critical milestone in CENTER International Group’s global expansion. Moving forward, CENTER will promote integrated solar-storage-charging technologies at Thai Poly Group’s factory, utilizing green electricity for charging operations to reduce operational costs and enhance automation levels. Leveraging Thailand as a strategic hub, the company will integrate market resources across Southeast Asia, partnering with regional stakeholders like Thai Poly Group to jointly build a green building ecosystem.
Guided by its operational principles of "Loyalty, Responsibility, Efficiency, and Collaboration" and its business philosophy of "Technology Leadership, Mutual Benefit, Philanthropy, and Pragmatic Integrity," CENTER International Group will accelerate the transformation of Southeast Asia's industrial buildings toward "Zero-Carbon Intelligence" through technological empowerment and industrial synergy, establishing a benchmark for regional sustainable development.
