On May 7, 2025, the management team of Jing-Jin Electric North America convened a meeting to assess the evolving international trade landscape, formulate strategic measures, and safeguard the company’s annual operational performance targets amid trade uncertainties. The meeting was co-chaired by Ping Yu, Chairman of Jing-Jin Electric, and Scott Taylor, General Manager of Jing-Jin Electric North America.

 

The management team evaluated that while trade negotiations between China and the U.S. are expected to yield positive outcomes, the company’s sole North American production facility, located on U.S. soil, remains minimally exposed to tariff risks. Given the rigid nature of automotive industry orders and strong collaboration with key customers, the majority of import tariff costs for raw materials will be passed downstream along the supply chain. Consequently, the near-term impact of additional tariffs on the company’s operational profitability is anticipated to be negligible.

 

In the medium to long term, the company plans to partner with major North American clients to continuously optimize production locations and supply chain configurations. This strategic alignment aims to ensure compliance with localization requirements under the USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement), enabling the company to secure preferential tariff conditions and maintain a competitive edge under diverse trade scenarios.

 

During the meeting, senior leaders also engaged with employees on key operational priorities, including lean manufacturing, inventory management, quality enhancement, and safety, health, and environmental (SHE) compliance. The North American team demonstrated high morale and confidence in the company’s future prospects.

 

Since 2020, Jing-Jin Electric has established a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Farmington Hills, Michigan, equipped with highly automated production lines.
