Joining Forces to Open up New Frontiers: FUCHS Invited to Volkswagen Anhui’s First Supplier Quality Week

As the only lubricants supplier invited, FUCHS China shared best practices at the first Supplier Quality Week organized by Volkswagen (Anhui) Automotive Company Limited from November 27 to 28, 2023, which focused on the importance of quality in day-to-day operations and market competition.

Themed “Pioneering Your Competitiveness”, Volkswagen Anhui’s first supplier quality week aims to unite supplier partners and extend Volkswagen’s inherent market advantage to new territories with superior quality. As the first NEV-focused joint venture of the Volkswagen Group in China, Volkswagen Anhui is responsible for digital research and development. Going forward, the company plans to build Hefei, capital of Anhui Province, into a hub for the development of smart connected electric vehicles in China by expanding its strategic footprint in the city with new production, R&D and innovation centers.

A long-time partner of Volkswagen in China, FUCHS has been Volkswagen A Class Supplier since entering the Chinese market in 1988. The FUCHS-Volkswagen fit extends beyond products to strategic concepts, as the thorough localization practices of FUCHS China, the group’s Asia-Pacific technology center, are not unlike the “in China, for China” strategy proposed by the Volkswagen Group. On top of conventional vehicles powered by internal combustion engines, FUCHS will seek closer cooperation with Volkswagen on future mobility options that will help set Volkswagen apart from the competition at “China speed”.
