On December 10, 2025, Zheng Bishuang, President of Haotong Group, Vice President of Hunan Import and Export Industry Association, led a team to visit ZMEV LIMITED, Vice President of the association, with the aim of deepening business connections, integrating advantageous resources, and seeking new opportunities for Hunan Africa trade cooperation. Li Xiuwei, the chairman of ZMEV, and other senior executives warmly welcomed him.

ZMEV focuses on the global expansion and localized operation of the entire new energy vehicle industry chain. With an integrated solution of "product+technology+service" and a full chain business system, it has strong competitiveness in the international market. Haotong Holdings is a comprehensive service group with advanced customs AEO certification, with rich experience in foreign trade comprehensive services, international logistics and other fields. The purpose of this meeting is to deepen the business connection between the two sides, integrate advantageous resources, and jointly seek a new chapter in Hunan Africa trade cooperation.

In terms of customs clearance business, Liu Zengguang, General Manager of the Logistics Division of Haotong Group, based on his profound experience in international logistics and customs clearance services, analyzed in detail the differences in customs clearance policies in Africa and the key points of compliance risk prevention and control for ZMEV, and proposed a solution for efficient customs clearance throughout the entire process. ZMEV has provided feedback on urgent needs such as simplifying customs clearance processes based on its own operational experience in Africa. The two sides reached a preliminary consensus on establishing a customs clearance coordination mechanism, which will greatly enhance the efficiency and cost control capabilities of trade with Africa.

In the promotion of AEO advanced certification, ZMEV and Haotong Group had in-depth exchanges on the value of certification and the joint promotion path. As an internationally recognized customs credit certification system, AEO certification will bring tangible policy dividends such as reduced inspection rates and priority in customs clearance for ZMEV's trade with Africa. ZMEV is willing to work together to integrate resources, share experiences, and jointly promote certification preparation, laying a solid foundation for compliant and efficient trade with Africa.

In terms of expanding the African trade market, Haotong Group relies on the Lugu High tech Zone Foreign Trade Comprehensive Service Platform to provide full chain foreign trade service support; ZMEV, on the other hand, has accumulated rich market channels and customer resources through its deep experience in non automotive service fields. Both sides will accelerate the sorting of cooperation entry points, explore the "service empowerment+channel linkage" model, and jointly promote Hunan's trade with Africa to a new height.

During the communication, both parties expressed their willingness and expectations for cooperation. This exchange is a crucial step in the internal resource coordination of the Hunan Import and Export Industry Association. The two sides complement each other's advantages, not only creating commercial value, but also setting a benchmark for Hunan enterprises to explore the new model of "product+service going global" and promoting the high-quality development of new forms of foreign trade.
