The factory in China's breadbasket.

We have had a site in the city of Gaomi in eastern China since 2014. The factory produces high-quality agricultural machines and manufactures components to the same standard as German suppliers. It owes its success to Germany's dual system of vocational training and education and the CLAAS corporate philosophy, which the Chinese employees more than 8,000 kilometres away from our headquarters in Harsewinkel have embraced.
