The German Schuler Group has a history of more than 180 years, with businesses covering precision forging, forming technology, and the electronics industry.

Since the Schuler Group acquired Yangduan Company, the company has seen flourishing production and sales, making important contributions to the economic development of Yangzhou. It is hoped that this project signing will be a new starting point to accelerate project construction, strive for early production and effectiveness, and establish Schuler Group as a benchmark for foreign-invested enterprises in Yangzhou. We look forward to Schuler Group seizing the opportunity of China’s vigorous promotion of large-scale equipment upgrades, fully experiencing Yangzhou’s favorable investment environment and convenient transportation advantages, deepening cooperation with Yangzhou, expanding cooperation fields, increasing investment and industrial layout in Yangzhou, and promoting the landing of more high-quality projects in Yangzhou. Yangzhou will continue to create a high-quality business environment and provide comprehensive service guarantee for enterprise development.

The next step will be to leverage the company’s strengths, deepen industrial cooperation with Yangzhou, fully support the growth of projects in Yangzhou, and contribute to new achievements in Yangzhou’s development.
