China · YTO Co., Ltd. listed in Hong Kong and Shanghai
YTO Group is a Chinese machinery group whose agricultural history dates to 1955, when YTO was founded in Luoyang as the first tractor manufacturer in new China. Its subsidiary YTO Co., Ltd. is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the Shanghai Stock Exchange. Export business is carried out through YTO International, which sells the group's tractors, engines and other farm equipment outside China.
The Dongfanghong name runs across the group's wheeled and crawler tractors, diesel engines and harvesting equipment. Crawler tractors spread their weight over tracks, which helps on heavy or soft ground, while wheeled tractors cover general field and transport work. YTO also makes combine harvesters, agricultural implements, diesel gensets and road rollers. Export models are specified separately from the Chinese domestic range, so importers settle the exact specification, documentation, manual language, diagnostic access and servicing arrangements for their own market.

YTO's export business reports customers in more than 100 countries and regions. The figure describes international reach, and the models on offer differ from market to market.
Does YTO supply only tractors?
No. Its portfolio also includes diesel engines, harvesting machines and agricultural implements.
