In the Brest region, in cooperation with Chinese partners, they plan to establish production of electric trucks. Deputy chairman of the Brest City Council, Mikhail Batsenko, told Belta's correspondent in a comment.

A delegation of official and business circles from the Brest region, led by City Council chairman Pyotr Parkhomchik, went to China. The program includes meetings and negotiations, visits to enterprises. Representatives of Brest are currently working in Anhui province.

From the morning we met with the management of the partner company, where we discussed the points we have already achieved. By 2026, about 96 sets of medium‑tonnage trucks had been delivered. About 48 have already been assembled and shipped to buyers. The development plan for the next year foresees the creation of up to 200 medium‑tonnage trucks of various payload capacities, said Mikhail Batsenko.

The open joint‑stock company “BrestMash” cooperates with this Chinese company, implementing various joint projects. As a result of Belarusian‑Chinese cooperation, the production site in the city of Nad Bug already assembled more than 3.5 thousand units of equipment.

“We agreed that we would develop a five‑year strategy that includes electric trucks and increased production of internal‑combustion‑engine trucks. The next project we will definitely undertake is pickups, which here are called T8 and T9,” noted the deputy chairman of the Brest City Council. During the negotiations, an agreement on further cooperation between the parties was signed.

“Light‑tonnage trucks are in demand commercial transport both in Belarus and among neighbors. Therefore we pay special attention to the project,” emphasized Pyotr Parkhomchik.

During the visit to China, which will last until November 12, the Brest region delegation will also visit Shanxi province. The agenda includes increasing trade turnover and searching for new projects for joint implementation.
