In an effort to gain the first-hand information about the market and customers, a group of high-ranking officials from Hengtong Bus, including Xie Yaohong, President and General Manager of the bus maker, Yang Xiaobing, Secretary of the CPC Committee of the company, has been conducting a series market research since July this year. Divided into four smaller teams, the officials visited 16 public transport companies in Chongqing (Western Public Transport, Liangjiang Public Transport, Yiqi Bus, Public Transport No. 3 Company, Public Transport No. 5 Company), Guiyang, Zunyi, Anshun, Zigong, Yibin, Suining, Yinchuan, Xining, Baoji, Xianyang, Shuangliu in Chengdu, etc.
While visiting Guizhou, Sichuan, Qinghai and Shaanxi, Hengtong staff made field visits to the local operating bus lines and their repair & maintenance factories. In doing so, the bus maker has gained the precious operation data of its vehicles from multi-channels. In addition, the trip has prepared the bus maker to come up with new R&D strategies and marketing policies as well as roll out new bus products, public transport solutions and after-sale services.
