Our Services
We provide integrated “research–site selection–engagement–communication” services for Chinese enterprises in South Africa and Southern Africa. Combining industry and policy expertise with a deep understanding of local narratives, we help clients navigate complex environments with practical roadmaps and long-term, hands-on support.
Advisory & Strategic Consulting
We conduct market and industry research across automotive and new energy, e-mobility, mining and critical minerals, and logistics and supply chains, analysing market size, competition, policy environments and trends in South Africa and neighbouring countries.
We advise on site selection for factories, warehouses and operations hubs, assessing industrial parks, supply chain options and logistics costs. For mining projects, we evaluate business environments, security situations and policy risks in host countries, and offer differentiated entry strategies tailored to specific minerals such as tantalum–niobium, lithium and gold.
We help clients engage with relevant government departments, industry associations and local institutions in South Africa and neighbouring countries, interpreting industrial policies, mining regulations and tax regimes. Where needed, we facilitate closed-door briefings and policy roundtables with party-linked think tanks and university research centres to enrich corporate decision-making.
We support clients in identifying local partners and suppliers and building advisory and execution teams. For automotive, mining and logistics projects, we provide ongoing monitoring of policy, public opinion and industry trends, acting as clients’ “local extension team” in South Africa and Southern Africa.
Media & Communications
We design brand positioning and communication strategies for Chinese enterprises in South Africa and Africa more broadly, defining target audiences, key messages and communication channels based on each project’s stage and characteristics.
We develop Chinese and English content – including press releases, feature stories, in-depth articles and case narratives – and work with partners to produce video interviews, short films and documentaries.
We connect clients with mainstream and specialised media in South Africa, coordinating interviews and coverage. We plan and execute press conferences, media roundtables and industry forums, and where appropriate, involve think tanks, scholars and business forums.
For mining and industrial projects that may face sensitive issues around environment, communities or labour, we provide monitoring, early warning and crisis-response advice. After incidents, we assist clients with fact clarification, relationship repair and long-term reputation rebuilding.
