Qingdao, Shandong – Doublestar is planning to build a new plant in Algeria with 2 million unit annual capacity for truck and bus tires and 5 million unit for passenger car tires.


Subsidiary Hong Kong Doublestar International signed an agreement earlier this year with Algeria’s Sarl El Hadj Larbi Pneumatiques to set up a joint venture for the project, the Chinese tire maker announced in its first half results statement.


Doublestar will invest $5 million (€4.5 million) in the project, while the Algerian firm will inject €222.
