CMC
History
China
Motor Corporation (CMC; Chinese: 中華汽車工業;
pinyin: Zhōnghuá Qìchē Gōngyè) is an automobile manufacturer based in Taipei,
Taiwan. It was founded in June 1969, and signed a technology sharing contract
with Mitsubishi Motors the following year. On December 12, 1973 they opened
their first manufacturing facility, in Yangmei. Initially vehicle production
was at a rate of 300 vehicles per month, but thanks to rapid growth, and the
development of an advanced painting facility, the factory produced its
100,000th vehicle in 1983.
Originally
they only produced commercial vehicles, but have since expanded operations,
producing more than 100,000 vehicles per year. Currently they operate three
manufacturing plants, two in Yangmei and one in Hsinchu.
The
company has been listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange since March 1991, and has
repeatedly been recognized for its remarkable growth. In 1993 it was awarded
the National Quality Award of Taiwan and were ranked first place in J.D. Power
Asia-Pacific's Sales Satisfaction Index in 2000 and 2001. They have also been
awarded numerous accolades for exemplary working conditions in their
manufacturing plants.
Since
1995, CMC has invested heavily in China's South East Motor Corporation, and
have poised themselves to take advantage of China's economic growth.
In
2005, the company was given approval from the Chinese government, and signed an
agreement with DaimlerChrysler to produce minivans for the mainland market.
13.97
percent of the company is owned by Mitsubishi, and all of their models are
revamped Mitsubishi designs, adjusted to appeal for the Taiwanese market except
for Freeca and Veryca, which are entirely CMC designs and not based on
Mitsubishi models.
Since
June 2007, CMC is participated in the Fujian Daimler joint venture.
CMC
is adept at taking advantage of market opportunities, and promoting fiscal
transparency along with a merit-based personnel system that has molded its
employees into a cohesive unit. Meanwhile, a cooperative, win-win purchasing
system involving the enterprise and its suppliers, has enhanced flexibility and
improved quality. Thorough implementation of strategic policy has allowed the
company to accurately access markets, and manufacture the right vehicle, at the
right time.
