Who We Are
Shanghai Kaigao Auto Parts Co., Ltd. (brand name: Kigoauto) is a leading manufacturer and innovator in the automotive key industry. Founded in October 2010 and strategically located in the Jinqiao Import & Export Processing Zone, Pudong New Area, Shanghai—just across the street from SAIC-GM—we have grown from a small team of 20 into a dynamic company with over 100 employees and a 13-acre (approx. 8,600 m²) modern facility.
Our founder brought years of deep industry expertise and a clear vision: to make high-quality automotive keys accessible worldwide. Since our rebranding in 2015 as Shanghai Kaigao Auto Parts Co., Ltd., we have continuously expanded our capabilities, staying at the forefront of the rapidly evolving automotive aftermarket.
