SDLG Global Dealer Summit 2026 Officially Opens
Linyi City, China, 25th Nov 2025 – United in purpose and ready for a new chapter. From November 19 to 20, the SDLG Global Dealer Summit 2026 was successfully held in Hangzhou under the theme “New Chapter, New Initiatives, New Future.” More than 300 dealer representatives from over 140 countries and regions gathered to discuss cooperation, explore growth opportunities and witness SDLG’s global leadership.
SDLG Keynote Highlights
As the core segment of the summit, Lingong Group Chairman Wang Zhizhong delivered a keynote speech titled “New Chapter, New Initiatives, New Future.” He reviewed the 19-year history of cooperation with Volvo CE and emphasized that this partnership not only provided technical and management support to SDLG, but also significantly enhanced SDLG’s global recognition. This was achieved through independent operations and the implementation of a dual-brand strategy. Today, SDLG has strengths in product technology and quality, enterprise quality management, lean manufacturing, artificial intelligence, and digitalization.
Regarding the amicable separation between the two parties, Chairman Wang explained that it was a joint decision. The factors included intensifying domestic competition, global industry restructuring, geopolitical changes, SDLG’s needs for accelerated growth, and Volvo CE’s internal considerations. He noted, “Independent operation is to better achieve long-term development.” This conclusion gives SDLG greater autonomy and a more efficient decision-making environment.
SDLG Global Growth Strategy
Looking ahead, Chairman Wang presented a clear blueprint for SDLG’s next stage of global development. To accelerate high-quality independent growth, Lingong Group launched a new development strategy guided by the principle of “securing domestic share and pursuing overseas growth.” Based on this strategy, the Group aims to surpass RMB 100 billion in revenue by 2030 and become a leading global industrial group.
To achieve these goals, SDLG is advancing key strategic initiatives. First, the company launched the internationalization strategy titled “Comprehensively Advance, Achieve Key Breakthroughs, and Build a New Landscape for SDLG’s International Market.” The “comprehensively advance” phase includes full internationalization in marketing, after-sales service, parts supply, overseas manufacturing, talent development, and financial systems.
The key breakthroughs target the top 20 countries representing 80% of global market share. This allows rapid expansion through focused efforts. Second, SDLG continues to expand its product lines. This enriches the overall portfolio and strengthens dealers’ market competitiveness.
Global Dealer Expectations
Under the new internationalization strategy, Chairman Wang outlined his expectations for global dealers. He emphasized strengthening confidence, enhancing service and aftermarket support, safeguarding the brand’s reputation, and keeping pace with electrification trends. He encouraged all partners to work together to create a successful future.
SDLG continues to shine in the global construction machinery sector. The company delivers outstanding product quality, solid R&D capabilities, and an expanding global footprint. It sets new records in overseas markets while offering “EXPERT FAST CARE” services worldwide, creating a distinctive international path.
During the summit, SDLG General Manager Wen Degang delivered the report “Strengthen Foundations, Enhance Capabilities, Leapfrog Progress.” He analyzed global economic and industry trends, reviewed SDLG’s achievements, and outlined a five-year strategic roadmap. Under the new strategy, SDLG will implement eight major initiatives: organizational reform, overseas platform building, channel expansion, product enhancement, service upgrading, risk control, manufacturing management, and global brand development.
By strengthening foundations and enhancing capabilities, SDLG aims to develop reliable products, services, and teams. The company expects 2025 to be a pivotal year. With strategic restructuring and global expansion, SDLG anticipates overseas revenue growth of 30% year-on-year. Both sales volume and market share are expected to rise steadily.
Partner Recognition And Insights
To honor dealers with outstanding achievements, the summit hosted the “Outstanding Overseas Dealer Award Ceremony 2025.” Award-winning dealers achieved remarkable sales performance and market presence. They received recognition for their professional sales teams, efficient service support, and exceptional market development capabilities.

These discussions offered strategic insight and practical guidance. They provided clear pathways and strong support for future collaboration.
A globally focused summit strengthened shared understanding between SDLG and its international partners. Moving forward, SDLG will uphold its brand philosophy, enhance product and service quality, and deepen collaboration with global partners in construction machinery.
