Driving the high road to success

GAC Motor looks to capitalize on growing opportunities from the Belt and Road plan to boost presence in overseas markets, reports Qiu Quanlin in Guangzhou.

State-owned GAC Motor Co Ltd, a division of Guangzhou Automobile Group Co Ltd, continued to expand its global presence amid a slowdown in the export of domestically made vehicles during the first five months of the year.

According to Wu Song, general manager of GAC Motor, the company plans to boost sales in overseas markets this year, especially in countries and regions along the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road and the Silk Road Economic Belt.
