On October 14, 2026, the 2026 Two-Wheeler Industry (Guangzhou) Procurement Matchmaking Conference was successfully held in Guangzhou. The event was hosted by the Foreign Trade Development Bureau of the Ministry of Commerce of China, organized by the China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Machinery and Electronic Products (CCCME), and co-organized by the Wuxi Xishan District Electric Vehicles Foreign Trade Association.

With strong attention and support from the commerce authorities in major two-wheeler industry clusters, including Tianjin, Chongqing, Guangzhou, Wuxi, Taizhou, Jiangmen, Ziyang and Jinyun, as well as overseas buyers, the event brought together nearly 300 participants from nearly 150 key Chinese two-wheeler companies and 40 overseas buyers for sourcing and business matchmaking.

During the opening session, Wang Yuchen, Director of the Foreign Trade Development Bureau of the Ministry of Commerce, and Shi Yonghong, Vice President of the CCCME, delivered remarks on behalf of the host and organizer, respectively. Jinyun County, Lishui, Zhejiang Province, gave a presentation on its development plan for the intelligent short-distance transportation industry. Chinese and international guests also introduced the market conditions of key markets such as Brazil and India and presented their sourcing requirements. The event was moderated by Wang Ying, Director of the Machinery Industry Department of the CCCME. In his remarks, Wang Yuchen, Director of the Foreign Trade Development Bureau of the Ministry of Commerce, said that China is not only the “world’s factory” but also a “world market,” bringing new development opportunities and greater room for growth to countries around the world. As a two-way trade and investment promotion institution directly under the Ministry of Commerce, the Bureau organizes more than 50 trade matchmaking events every year to promote exchanges and cooperation between Chinese and international companies. He noted that this two-wheeler industry procurement matchmaking event will help further implement the requirements of stabilizing employment, enterprises, markets and expectations, actively expand consumption, stabilize foreign trade and foreign investment, and provide strong support for getting the 15th Five-Year Plan off to a good start. Going forward, the Bureau will further implement the work arrangements of the relevant authorities and, together with the CCCME and other trade associations, continue to deepen practical cooperation with all parties and establish more high-quality sourcing and supply matchmaking platforms.

Shi Yonghong, Vice President of the CCCME, noted that the two-wheeler industry is one of the important sectors of China’s manufacturing and foreign trade industries, and that China has developed a number of internationally competitive companies and industrial clusters. At recent editions of the Canton Fair, the proportion of electrified and intelligent products in the two-wheeler exhibition areas has increased significantly, making them a major focus of attention among overseas buyers. Going forward, the CCCME will further strengthen positive interaction and in-depth cooperation with overseas buyers and China’s manufacturers, bring together more resources for exchanges and cooperation between Chinese and international companies, and pave a more solid path for Chinese two-wheeler companies to expand into overseas markets.

Huang Yifan, a member of the Party Leadership Group and Deputy County Mayor of the People’s Government of Jinyun County, Lishui, Zhejiang Province, presented Jinyun County’s development plan for the intelligent short-distance transportation industry. He said that the global two-wheeler market offers substantial potential, while the total output value of Jinyun County’s short-distance transportation-related industries has exceeded RMB 10 billion. The industry has a strong export-oriented profile, with products exported to more than 50 countries and regions worldwide. Europe and the United States account for 70% of its total output. Going forward, Jinyun will provide better services and greater support in areas including strengthening existing industrial chains, filling gaps in the supply chain, and extending the industrial chain, with the aim of helping establish Jinyun as a global manufacturing base for the intelligent short-distance transportation industry.

Liu Jun, Operations Manager of Jiangsu Bajingtong Supply Chain Services Co., Ltd., gave a presentation at the event focusing on the Brazilian electric two-wheeler market. Based on field research conducted across 20 states in Brazil and extensive experience providing import services for electric two-wheeler companies, Liu Jun gave a detailed overview of Brazil’s regulatory framework for electric two-wheelers, regional market development and the current brand and distribution landscape. She said that Chinese electric two-wheeler companies entering Brazil have now entered a stage of deeper localization, involving local warehousing and local after-sales services. In the Brazilian market, where the brand landscape has yet to be fully established, she believes the biggest opportunity in the next stage will come from the benefits of building strong brands.

Liu Yuhu, General Manager of Brazil YEMA Electric Vehicle Group (YEMA), said that the company is the first factory established by Chinese Brazilians to obtain tax-exempt qualification for electric two-wheelers within the Manaus Free Trade Zone in Brazil. He introduced the company’s sourcing requirements for electric two-wheeler components. Based on his experience, he noted that whether products can adapt to local use scenarios such as commuting and delivery, as well as how spare parts, after-sales services and local partnerships can be effectively coordinated, are all issues that require close attention when developing the Brazilian market.

Manish Agarwal, General Manager of India-based EV Sports, analyzed the key opportunities in the Indian market and the company’s localized sourcing requirements. He said that annual sales of new fuel-powered two-wheelers and electric two-wheelers in India are expected to evolve from 6.7 million units and 1.4 million units, respectively, in fiscal year 2026, with combined annual sales of approximately 8.1 million units, to 6 million units and 6 million units, respectively, by fiscal year 2031, bringing combined annual sales to approximately 12 million units. The combined sales of fuel-powered and electric two-wheelers are expected to register a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8%. The average selling price of fuel-powered scooters in India is expected to be approximately US$945 per unit, while the average selling price of electric scooters is expected to be approximately US$1,154 per unit. Total annual sales of fuel-powered and electric two-wheelers in the Indian market are expected to increase from US$7.9 billion in fiscal year 2026 to US$12.5 billion in fiscal year 2031.

During the one-on-one procurement meetings between Chinese and international companies, 40 overseas buyers from 20 countries, including Brazil, India, Spain, Russia, Nepal, the Philippines, Iran, Bangladesh and Pakistan, held in-depth discussions with 150 Chinese companies covering products such as motorcycles, all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), electric two-wheelers, bicycles and related components. During the discussions, some Chinese companies also took the initiative to invite and accompany their overseas partners to the event for further exchanges. The interactions on site were lively, and the matchmaking area attracted a high level of activity. The entire matchmaking session lasted nearly two hours, with numerous companies engaging in in-depth discussions on products, market opportunities and cooperation needs, and multiple cooperation intentions were reached on site.

As one of the overseas buyer organizers for the event, MEGA CHINAMOTOR participated throughout the procurement matchmaking activities. During the event, MEGA CHINAMOTOR observed that overseas buyers responded positively to this efficient and highly focused matchmaking format. For many overseas buyers, taking advantage of their participation in the 140^th Canton Fair, a single targeted matchmaking event enabled them to connect with a large number of high-quality Chinese two-wheeler export companies in one place. This not only improved sourcing efficiency but also effectively reduced the time and effort required to identify suppliers and communicate with them individually.

At the same time, participating Chinese companies also gave positive feedback on the organization and format of the event. Many companies expressed the hope that more targeted matchmaking events between Chinese and international companies could be held in the future, creating more opportunities for Chinese two-wheeler companies to communicate face-to-face with overseas buyers and further expand their overseas markets and diversified channels for international cooperation.
