Chery was established in 1997 in Anhui Province. It produced 305,200 cars last year, up from 189,000 a year earlier and 50,000 in 2002.
The company has signed an agreement with Chrysler to produce cars for the brand and sell them in North America and Europe. As Chrysler is up for sale there can be no guarantees the deal will go ahead. Last year Chery exported 50,000 cars and is hoping to double the figure this year.
