Wrightbus wins £7 million Hong Kong order for electric buses

Wrightbus, the County Antrim bus manufacturer, has secured a £7 million contract to supply electric buses to Hong Kong, marking what the company describes as a hugely significant order. The deal forms part of Wrightbus's strategy to expand its presence in Asian markets. The Belfast Telegraph reports the order as a major milestone for the Northern Ireland based firm.

Why it matters: The contract signals growing international demand for UK manufactured electric buses and highlights Hong Kong as an active procurement market. For CPOs and suppliers, it demonstrates the export potential of established European EV bus makers into Asia Pacific territories.
