Electronics manufacturer Hisense and China National Building Material Group (CNBM) have signed a strategic cooperation agreement, committing to building a localised ecosystem and bringing China’s advanced technologies into the African market, says Hisense.

The agreement is aimed at driving innovation and deeper collaboration between the parties in Africa’s energy and cooling industries.

As part of the agreement, Hisense has introduced its sub-brand, Kelon, to South Africa, bringing high-efficiency, energy-saving air conditioning products to the country.

By integrating Hisense’s professional air conditioning distribution channels with CNBM’s solar energy industry resources, the two companies will create a full-channel air conditioning and new energy ecosystem, achieving strategic synergy between retail terminals and service networks.

Building on their strong presence in South Africa, both parties will expand their collaboration into smart energy solutions.

“Kelon is committed to delivering inclusive value to the African market, introducing affordable and sustainable cooling solutions that help create better living environments for every household.

“At the same time, these low-energy, high-resilience energy systems will inspire other industry stakeholders to participate in Africa’s green transition,” says Hisense Air Conditioning operations centre GM Zhang Yupeng.
