The JINBEI brand was created in 1989 and has held a leading position in China’s light commercial vehicle market ever since. After 35 years of development it has become an industry benchmark — the only commercial vehicle brand whose name represents the entire category. The range now covers over a hundred models, including Haise, Haise King, New Express and Grand Haise, built around the core advantages of reliable quality and durability.
As early as 2006, JINBEI was designated a National Whole Vehicle Export Base by China’s Ministry of Commerce and the National Development and Reform Commission. It has formed a complete whole vehicle export sales network, now covering more than 80 countries and regions across Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Central and South America.
Designed in China, Manufactured Locally, Serving the World — moving from single-product export to technology licensing, localized production and government-to-government cooperation.
