Skyworth aims to grow its footprint across global markets

Chinese home appliance maker Skyworth Group plans to build three manufacturing bases in South America, North Africa and the Middle East regions in the coming two to three years as it strives to expand its global footprint amid growing saturation in the domestic market.

Internationalization is an important part of Skyworth's overall strategy, Liu Tangzhi, its chief executive officer, said.

"We aim to further expand our global network in the coming years in order to improve our supply chain," he said in an interview in Shenzhen on Wednesday.
