IN OTHER SAUDI SUPPLY CHAIN UPDATES-<\/p>\n

Ceer strengthens its localization drive: <\/strong>Saudi Arabia\u2019s first electric vehicle brand Ceer<\/a> has signed 11 agreements worth SAR 5.5 bn (USD 1.5 bn) at the forum with mostly Saudi companies to shore up its manufacturing supply chain as part of a localization strategy, according to a press release<\/a> from Wednesday. <\/p>\n

What we know:<\/strong> Ceer will source HVAC systems from Zamil Central Air Conditioners, plastic injected parts from Zamil Plastic Industrial Company, and alloy wheels from Obeikan Glass Company and Abdul Latif Jameel Enterprises. Other supply agreements include portable EV chargers from Saudi Company for Controls and Maintenance, blow parts from Arabian Plastic Industrial, small stampings from First Telecom Industries, and aluminum casting from Saudi Aluminum Casting Company. Ceer will also localize aluminum forged parts with CTR. <\/p>\n

A push for localization: <\/strong>Ceer is hoping to design, engineer, manufacture, and sell some of Saudi Arabia\u2019s first EVs<\/a> by 2026, and it awarded a SAR 5 bn (USD 1.3 bn) construction contract for its plant to local contractor Modern Building Leaders. The company partnered<\/a> with Saudi EV infrastructure firm EVIQ last October to install and expand the country\u2019s EV charging infrastructure. Ceer is looking to source over 40% of its raw materials locally<\/a> during its initial stage of operations. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
