中國公司赴美建廠成趨勢 泉林紙業(yè)20億美元下注美國市場
????多年以來,業(yè)務(wù)經(jīng)營的一個(gè)常見特點(diǎn)是:美國公司逃到中國,希望能夠在低成本勞動(dòng)力的支持下削減成本。 ????但與這個(gè)趨勢相反,中國的一家紙漿和造紙公司山東泉林紙業(yè)有限公司(Shandong Tranlin Paper Co.,)上周宣布,計(jì)劃投資20億美元,在弗吉尼亞州設(shè)立它在美國的第一家現(xiàn)代化制造廠。這個(gè)項(xiàng)目預(yù)計(jì)將在2020年創(chuàng)造2,000個(gè)新工作崗位。 ????泉林紙業(yè)擁有年產(chǎn)40萬噸精制漿、70萬噸機(jī)制紙、40萬噸有機(jī)肥、24億食品醫(yī)藥包裝盒的生產(chǎn)能力,現(xiàn)已開發(fā)出一種使用農(nóng)作物秸稈造紙的創(chuàng)新技術(shù),例如那些收割后通常留在農(nóng)田里的玉米和谷物副產(chǎn)品。 ????弗吉尼亞州農(nóng)林部長托德?海默爾說:“我們正在努力實(shí)現(xiàn)經(jīng)濟(jì)增長和多樣化,通過向中國市場出口、同時(shí)為這里的企業(yè)界引入中國投資,借此與我們最大的農(nóng)林業(yè)貿(mào)易伙伴中國繼續(xù)建立密切的關(guān)系十分關(guān)鍵?!?/p> ????“通過將通常留在農(nóng)田里的農(nóng)作物廢料創(chuàng)造出非常有利可圖的新市場,泉林為弗吉尼亞州玉米和小粒谷物種植主帶來了巨大的機(jī)遇,”海默爾補(bǔ)充說。“根據(jù)這個(gè)項(xiàng)目涉及的相關(guān)農(nóng)業(yè)供應(yīng)鏈商機(jī)來計(jì)算,一旦這個(gè)項(xiàng)目完工,滿負(fù)荷運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn),僅為這個(gè)地區(qū)農(nóng)場主產(chǎn)生的經(jīng)濟(jì)效益一項(xiàng)就超過5,000萬美元?!?/p> ????這個(gè)項(xiàng)目將建在弗吉尼亞州切斯特菲爾德縣詹姆士河工業(yè)中心(James River Industrial Center)一處占地850英畝(約合5160畝)的園區(qū)內(nèi)。 ????雖然按照弗吉尼亞的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)來看,這已經(jīng)是一項(xiàng)大投資,但其實(shí)之前已經(jīng)有先例。其他中國公司之前已經(jīng)進(jìn)入美國,其中就包括中國設(shè)備制造商三一(Sany)。這家公司最近在佐治亞州設(shè)立了辦公室,準(zhǔn)備開拓美國市場。(財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)) |
????It’s been a regular feature of business pages for years: An American company flees to China, hoping to cut cost with the help of cheap labor. ????But in a reversal of this trend, a Chinese pulp and paper company, Shandong Tranlin Paper Co., announced this week that it plans to invest $2 billion to establish its first American-based advanced manufacturing operation in Virginia. The project is projected to create 2,000 new jobs by 2020. ????Tranlin, which has an annual productivity of 400,000 tons of refined pulp, 700,000 tons of machine-made paper, 400,000 tons of organic fertilizers, and 2.4 billion food and medical packaging boxes, has developed an innovative technology to make paper, using agricultural residuals, such as corn and grain byproducts normally left in farm fields after harvest. ????“As we work to grow and diversify our economy, it is vital that we continue to build relationships with our largest agricultural and forestry trade partner, China, through both exports into Chinese markets and Chinese investments in business ventures here,” said Todd Haymore, Virginia Secretary of Agriculture and Forestry. ????“Tranlin represents a tremendous opportunity for Virginia’s corn and small grain producers by creating a lucrative new market for agricultural residuals that are typically left in the field,” Haymore added. “Based on the agricultural supply chain opportunities associated with the project, the economic benefit to farmers in this region alone could exceed $50 million per year once the project is complete and operating at full capacity.” ????The project will be based at an 850-acre campus located at the James River Industrial Center in Chesterfield County, Va. ????Though big by Virginia standards, the move is not unprecedented. Other Chinese companies have come to the United States, among the Chinese equipment manufacturer Sany, which recently opened sleek offices in Georgia as it tries to tap into the American market. |
