Shanghai Bearing Import & Export Co., Ltd. was founded on August 26, 1997. Its predecessor was the International Trade Department of Shanghai Bearing (Group) Corporation, which was established on October 8, 1992. After October 1992, when Shanghai Bearing (Group) Corporation obtained the import and export rights for industrial enterprises, the group's International Trade Department represented the group in conducting the import and export trade of bearings and bearing parts.
From 1992 to 1996, in just four years, the export performance of the International Trade Department increased extremely and outstandingly year after year. In 1997, the Shanghai Municipal Foreign Economic and Trade Commission and the State Economic and Trade Department approved the expansion of the scope of operations for the International Trade Department of Shanghai Bearing Corporation. This led to the establishment of an independent legal entity, Shanghai Bearing Import & Export Co., Ltd.
We are one of the largest Chinese bases for bearing production, sales, and export. Our history in bearing manufacturing spans over 60 years. To date, we have an annual bearing production and processing capacity of approximately 600 million sets.
