Chinese automotive supplier Yunyi has officially confirmed plans to establish a manufacturing presence in Morocco, marking a significant step in the company’s global expansion strategy. In a unanimous decision during its sixth board session, Jiangsu Yunyi Electric Co., Ltd. approved the launch of a wholly owned subsidiary in the North African country. The new branch will focus on producing and selling automotive components.
The upcoming factory will be built in Tangier, within the Mohammed VI Tanger Tech industrial zone—an ambitious hub designed to attract high-tech and export-oriented companies. The Moroccan subsidiary, to be named Yunyi Technology Morocco Co., Ltd., will start with an initial capital injection of $1 million, entirely financed by the Chinese parent company. The overall investment for the project is expected to reach $66 million, funded through internal capital or potential equity financing rounds.
The board’s approval passed with nine votes in favor and zero objections or abstentions. According to the company, the move is neither a related-party transaction nor a major asset restructuring. However, the investment must still go through the standard regulatory procedures for outbound capital projects before any ground is broken. The rollout will take place in stages.
This expansion had already received the green light from Yunyi’s strategic planning committee, and it aligns with the company’s broader goal of strengthening its international footprint, streamlining its operations outside of China, and boosting overall global competitiveness. The Morocco plant is seen as a strategic platform to support Yunyi’s medium- and long-term growth plans.
Meanwhile, Yunyi Electric’s stock closed at 11.64 RMB (around $1.63) on December 31, 2025, reflecting a modest dip of 0.09%. Trading volume reached 220,500 lots, amounting to a total of roughly 257 million RMB, or $36 million. Despite a net outflow of 15.1 million RMB from institutional investors, the company saw net inflows of 5.49 million RMB from short-term trading and 9.63 million RMB from retail investors.
