About Towelink

Shanghai Towelink Trading Co. (上海拓维行) is an independent trading company based in Shanghai, China. Mining engines, parts and service are our first and main business line.

Our story

Towelink was founded by Tony Tan, who has worked in the diesel engine parts business since 2006, including as Sales Manager at Chongqing Cummins Engine Parts.

Over the years Tony has seen how much a stopped mining machine costs, and how hard it can be to get a clear answer on engine availability. Towelink was set up to make that simpler for mines in Africa and South America.

We source complete engines and parts from stock held at partner warehouses in China, check them against the customer’s machine, and handle export packing and shipping.
