Industrial Clusters: Where to Source China Automated Factory
SourcifyChina Sourcing Report: China Automation Equipment Market Analysis (2026 Edition)
Prepared for Global Procurement Managers | Q1 2026
Executive Summary
The term “China automated factory” is a misnomer in sourcing contexts. Procurement professionals source automation equipment, systems, and solutions (e.g., robotics, PLCs, conveyors, IoT-integrated production lines) from Chinese manufacturers—not “factories” as physical assets. China supplies 38% of global industrial automation equipment (MIIT, 2025), with clusters specializing in cost-competitive, high-volume production. This report identifies key industrial hubs, compares regional capabilities, and provides data-driven sourcing strategies for 2026.
Critical Clarification: Sourcing “automated factories” implies procuring turnkey production lines or system integrators—not real estate. We analyze equipment/solutions enabling factory automation.
