In October, Huayou New Materials Industry Group established its Japanese subsidiary, Huayou Battery Materials Technology Japan Co., Ltd., which is now officially in operation.

Japan was one of the first countries to commercialize lithium-ion batteries and boasts a mature core supply chain for vehicle batteries. Its lithium-ion technology and business market are at the forefront globally, making it a pivotal component of the global new energy lithium battery industry and an indispensable strategic market for the company's accelerated high-quality development. Establishing a subsidiary in Japan represents a significant step for Huayou in responding to new international trends, adhering to a customer-centric approach, and implementing strategies of "product premiumization, industrial integration, and international business."

The Japanese subsidiary is located in Tokyo, the hub of key clients, offering unique geographical advantages and effectively bridging the distance between the company and its customers. Moreover, the subsidiary has set up specialized business units staffed by professionals permanently based in Japan, further reinforcing the principle of "close tracking and rapid response." Going forward, the Japanese subsidiary will leverage local advantages to enhance high-level collaboration within the industrial chain, strengthen technical exchanges and cooperation with upstream and downstream partners, and focus on achieving breakthroughs in the industry.

The establishment and operation of Huayou Battery Materials Technology Japan Co., Ltd. signify a crucial measure taken by the company to maintain existing business channels while accelerating the exploration of new channels and businesses, further increasing market penetration in Japan, and laying out plans for the international market. This is also a landmark move demonstrating Huayou's full commitment to the business philosophy of "customer-centricity" and aligning all employees with the consensus of "closely meeting customer needs and addressing their urgent demands." Moving forward, every member of Huayou will continue to uphold these principles.
