On October 26, Fortune (Chinese edition) released its "2021 Most Admired Chinese Companies" All-Star list, on which Sany Group appeared for the eleventh time, ranking fourth. Meanwhile, on the industry star list, Sany Group topped the manufacturing sector, claiming the title of "Most Admired Chinese Company in Manufacturing" for the third consecutive year.

The "Most Admired Chinese Companies" list has long been regarded as a barometer of the soft power of Chinese enterprises. This year, Fortune (Chinese edition) distributed a survey questionnaire on "Most Admired Chinese Companies" to 51,696 Chinese business managers. The All-Star list is drawn from companies that respondents across all industries selected as the most admired in their minds, while the industry star list comes from respondents scoring candidate companies within their own industries; rankings on the two lists may differ.

Being ranked highly on both the All-Star list and the industry star list shows that Sany Group has won unanimous esteem and high praise from both general business leaders and peer entrepreneurs.

In the supplementary survey attached to this year's list voting, some companies even argued that only participating in global market competition is the true touchstone for testing a company's real competitiveness, with Huawei and Sany Group cited as representative examples.

The official interpretation of the list noted that Sany Group's internationalization adopts a "dual focus strategy," namely focusing on key countries and key products. Through group expansion overseas, international production capacity cooperation and large-project exports, it seeks to upgrade its international operating model. The company not only has R&D and manufacturing bases in India, the United States, Germany and other countries, but also, after acquiring Germany's Putzmeister, further added more than 10 important global sales bases, with business covering more than 150 countries and regions worldwide.

The main feature of Sany Group's internationalization strategy is the shift from pure manufacturing to a synergy of manufacturing + services + finance. Putting customers at the center and seizing digital opportunities, it has built an intelligent service system based on an IoT platform, integrating machine purchase, operation and service into a complete value chain. More than 1,700 service centers worldwide fulfill the service commitment of arriving on site within 2 hours and completing work within 24 hours, winning customer trust through rapid service response capability.

Fortune China commented that in an environment of "reverse globalization," Chinese manufacturing enterprises are flying against the headwind of trade frictions, and industrial enterprises representing "China's strength" are increasingly winning market admiration and esteem. People place high hopes on large manufacturing enterprises with core technological strength and global capabilities, and the "national team" representing China's strength is becoming the Chinese all-star lineup in everyone's minds.
