The China-Africa Development Fund (CADFund) plays a pivotal role in facilitating Chinese investments across Africa.
Director Yu Qing explained that CADFund, established in 2006 during the Beijing Summit of FOCAC, is China’s first equity fund dedicated to investment in Africa, managed by the China Development Bank (CDB) with a total scale of $10 billion.
“By the end of August 2025, CADfund had made investment decisions totaling over $8.7 billion across 39 African countries, catalysing over $32.8 billion in Chinese enterprise investments and financing in Africa,” Qing stated.
These investments span infrastructure, industrial capacity, agriculture, digital innovation, and green development, significantly contributing to local job creation and tax revenue.
In South Africa, CADFund has made substantial commitments, with investment decisions totalling over $1.5 billion for 21 projects by August 2025. These projects cover infrastructure, mineral resources, energy, manufacturing, digital media, and supply chains.
One exemplary case is the Hisense Home Appliances Industrial Park in Cape Town, a joint investment between Hisense and CADFund, Qing highlighted. “This is the largest home appliance manufacturing plant in South Africa, invested in by Chinese enterprises. The park has an annual production capacity of one million televisions and 500,000 refrigerators, directly employing over 700 local workers and leveraging more than 4,000 local job opportunities,” he said.
Another success story is the FAW South Africa Assembly Plant in the Coega Industrial Development Zone.
“In 2024, FAW's commercial vehicle sales ranked first in the South African market. By the end of August 2025, the FAW project will have created approximately 2,000 direct jobs in South Africa,” Qing noted. The plant boasts 97% local talent utilisation and 70% product localisation, serving South Africa and neighbouring countries. The GCL-Poly Photovoltaic Project, a joint investment by CADFund and GCL-Poly, stands as a testament to green energy cooperation.
“Since its commissioning in mid-2014, the project has maintained stable operation, setting a strong example for subsequent initiatives. With an annual grid-connected electricity output consistently ranging between 280 and 30 million kWh, the project benefits over 130,000 households,” Qing detailed. This project has created 59 long-term local jobs and actively engages in community development.
