On February 6, the center manager of POSCO-CDPC, Tae-hyun Cho (eighth from the left), received the Excellent Supplier Award from DPCA.

During the award ceremony, 14 excellent suppliers were selected in the fields of distribution, parts, design, electrical and electronic systems. Among the selected companies, POSCO-CDPC is the only processing company that handles raw steel materials.

The DPCA Chengdu production base has an annual production capacity of 360,000 vehicles, and started operation in September 2016. POSCO-CDPC’s No. 2 plant moved into DPCA’s facilities to supply entire orders of blanking processing at the end of 2014. POSCO-CDPC was selected as an Excellent Supplier based on its product quality, delivery and service over the years of the companies’ partnership.

POSCO-CDPC produces and supplies products for 39 different parts in total, including exterior steel used for DPCA’s main SUV models, 4008, 5008 and Tianyi. In the future, POSCO-CDPC hopes to capitalize on its geographical advantages and maximize processing quality and service capabilities to ensure a stable and consistent order base.
