In October 2017, I was contacted by a client from the Dominican Republic, the largest economy in Central America and the Caribbean. Known for its tropical rainforests and grasslands, the Dominican Republic’s average temperature hovers around 25℃.
The client, owning a flour mill in the Dominican Republic, was planning to buy a bulk flour tanker for the first time from China, aiming to deliver flour to various factories. He previously purchased vehicles from the United States but was now exploring Chinese options for budget efficiency and reduced transportation costs, having heard about the high quality and competitive pricing of Chinese manufacturing.

At Panda Mech, we promptly engaged in detailed discussions with the client about his specific needs. Understanding that he intended to transport flour, we recommended a food-grade SS304 stainless steel tank, a safer choice than ordinary carbon steel with food-grade coating, ensuring flour purity.
We also suggested increasing the load capacity from 20 to 30 tons and compartments from 4 to 6, optimizing transportation efficiency and reducing costs. This adjustment meant that what previously required three trips could now be done in two, significantly saving time and expenses.

Additionally, considering the client’s past purchases and the cleanliness requirement for flour, we adopted an American W-shaped design. This design ensures no residual material is left inside the tanker during unloading, a significant advantage over the conventional V-shaped design.

Impressed with our professionalism and pricing, the client signed a transportation contract with Panda Mech. After receiving the deposit and finalizing the design, we commenced production.
Two months later, the client, upon seeing the finished product’s photos, expressed his satisfaction and completed the payment. We then arranged for the tanker’s delivery to the port.
