CIMC Intermodal Equilink

What CIMC Intermodal Equilink does

CIMC Intermodal Equilink Co., Ltd. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of CIMC Group (China International Marine Containers) that operates as a horizontal B2B supplier of logistics equipment, container and vehicle parts, and maritime supplies. Headquartered in Shanghai's Baoshan District with 51–100 employees and a stated delivery footprint across 85 countries, the company runs direct-to-customer e-commerce storefronts (cimc-equilink.com for retail-style browsing and equilink.kdgalaxy.com 'E-link' for B2B procurement), supplemented by WhatsApp Business and a Quick Quote workflow.

Its product portfolio spans the logistics operating stack: dry, reefer, ISO tank, open-top, flat-rack, dangerous-goods, and modified containers (site offices, container homes) from 6FT to 45FT; spare parts across dry, reefer, flat-rack, open-top, 53', 45', and reefer machinery; commercial vehicles including container chassis, flatbed, curtain sider, dumper, liquid tanker, dry bulk, and concrete mixer trailers; cargo-securing lashing tools; warehouse equipment (IBC tanks, pallets, crates, trolleys); industrial coatings (epoxy zinc-rich primer, epoxy intermediate, acrylic top coat, bituminous under-coating); personal protective equipment; and comprehensive ship supplies (provisions, rope, tools, welding, electrical).

The revenue model is one-time B2B/B2C sales of physical goods under five pricing streams (containers, parts, vehicles, lashing/logistics tools, coatings), with quote-based pricing rather than disclosed list prices, no recurring subscriptions, and no financing arms. Customer segments are primarily logistics/shipping companies, transportation-equipment operators, maritime operators, and warehousing/distribution centers — addressed horizontally across geographies in North America, Southeast Asia, Africa, and East Asia. Differentiation rests on CIMC brand-backed distribution reach, comprehensive SKU breadth as a one-stop shop, and execution scale (e.g., 400 semi-trailers delivered within one month to a Philippine client).
