Yuanfar and BD have committed to support ET Solar in the United Stateswhich includes taking advantage of Yuanfar’s muscular financial strength on behalf of ET Solar, Inc.’s module orders in the United States and will provide an average monthly supply chain financial support of $50 million to ensure the delivery of orders.
Yuanfar and BD will use the supply chain management channel to assist ET Solar, Inc. to set up a global OEM and supply chain capabilities (Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia and Turkey factory).
