HOWO heavy-duty dump truck fleet heading to an African mining project.
Africa has officially become China's No.1 heavy truck export market. According to China customs data, 95,000 heavy trucks were exported to Africa in the first half of 2026, up 75% year-on-year - nearly half of China's total heavy truck exports. Growth in Tanzania, Ghana and Kenya even exceeded 100%, while Sinotruk, maker of the HOWO brand, reported a 57.1% rise in overseas sales and a 66% surge in the African market alone.
HOWO tractor trucks and dump trucks inspected and prepared for delivery at our workshop.
HOWO and SHACMAN Trucks Lead the Demand
The boom is driven by strong infrastructure investment under the African Continental Free Trade Area, China's zero-tariff policy for 53 African countries, and fast-growing mining projects in gold, bauxite and lithium. As fleets of aging European trucks are replaced, buyers are turning to HOWO and SHACMAN 6x4 / 8x4 dump trucks, tractor trucks and semi trailers for their competitive prices, heavy-duty configurations and easy access to spare parts.
As a professional exporter with 18 years of experience, Shandong Welerxin Vehicle Co., Ltd. supplies HOWO, HOHAN, SHACMAN and FOTON trucks and a full range of semi trailers to more than 100 countries, with ready stock available for immediate shipment to Africa.
