Zhangjiagang Links Machinery Co., Ltd., a renowned professional supplier of beverage packaging equipment and consumables in China, has announced the successful shipment of high-performance preforms and bottle caps to Burundi. This initiative marks the company’s latest step in tapping into the emerging African beverage market, bringing reliable packaging solutions to local manufacturers and fostering mutual development.

Established in 2001, Links Machinery is nestled in Zhangjiagang City—a vital hub in the Yangtze River Delta economic zone, with easy access to Shanghai Port and convenient global logistics networks. Covering an area of over 15,000 square meters, the company integrates full-chain services from R&D and manufacturing to sales and after-sales support. Its product portfolio spans across beverage, beer, dairy, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries, earning trust from clients in numerous countries worldwide. The preforms and caps shipped to Burundi are crafted with advanced production technologies, ensuring excellent compatibility with local production lines and meeting strict quality and safety standards.

The African beverage market, particularly in Burundi, has witnessed robust growth in recent years, fueled by urbanization and rising consumer demand for quality packaged products. Local manufacturers are actively seeking high-quality packaging consumables to enhance product competitiveness, which creates favorable opportunities for Links Machinery. Leveraging its advantageous geographical location and mature logistics collaboration experience, the company has streamlined the shipping process—from raw material inspection and production to customs clearance and international transportation—to ensure the goods arrive at Burundi on schedule.

Innovation has always been the core driving force of Links Machinery’s development. The company has secured multiple patents for its products and maintains in-depth cooperation with domestic professional universities to continuously optimize product design and performance. “Entering the Burundi market is a significant breakthrough for our African expansion strategy,” noted a senior representative of Links Machinery. “We are dedicated to understanding the unique needs of emerging markets, providing customized solutions that help local clients reduce costs and improve production efficiency.”

This shipment to Burundi further enriches Links Machinery’s global cooperation map, following its successful partnerships across Asia, Europe, and the Americas.
