Significant Market Growth and Expansion Plans

Hisense has experienced exceptional growth in the MEA region, with business revenue doubling since 2019 and brand equity increasing by over 120% during the same period.

"Hisense is committed to bringing groundbreaking technology and high-tech innovation to households in the Middle East and Africa to uplift consumers' lives. Our growth in this region is a testament to our commitment, and we are excited to continue building on this success," said Jia Shaoqian, Hisense Group Chairman.

To accelerate this, we are expanding our core business foundations such as investment in technology innovation, R&D centers, expansion of global production bases, global brand-building sponsorship initiatives, enhancing our service network, and amplifying efficiencies in supply chain and logistics."

Strengthening Partnerships and Collaboration

"With the diversity and dynamic environment in the widely spread MEA region, working closely with our partners in the Middle East and Africa is key to our success. This collaboration allows us to develop local strategies that leverage their expertise and market knowledge.

Local R&D and Production Initiatives

Further demonstrating its commitment to the region, Hisense leverages its existing state-of-the-art R&D center strategically located in Dubai Media City.

These facilities will not only streamline logistics and expedite deliveries, but also create local jobs and contribute to the economic growth of the region.
