China Great Wall Industry

China Great Wall Industry Corporation (CGWIC) functions as the exclusive commercial vehicle for the Chinese space industry, managing the international marketing and provision of satellite launch services, satellite in-orbit delivery, and aerospace technology cooperation. As a subsidiary of the state-owned China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC), it sits at the apex of the national export value chain, bridging domestic state manufacturing with global commercial and governmental satellite operators. The organisation is the primary point of contact for the Long March family of launch vehicles. Its portfolio includes the delivery of communication and remote sensing satellites for international clients, notably providing turn-key solutions that encompass the satellite bus, launch service, and ground station infrastructure. Key partnerships and contracts have historically involved regional satellite operators in South America, Southeast Asia, and Africa, as well as European commercial payloads for low-Earth orbit deployment. Prospective partners should verify current international export control regimes and inter-governmental technology transfer restrictions, which vary significantly by jurisdiction. It is essential to confirm the specific availability of the Long March variant required for a mission and the compliance of satellite components with regulations regarding Chinese launch integration. Verification of launch scheduling priority within the national manifest is also advised.
