Note: For the ease of reading, uses of "Corporation" and "Limited" in company names in this text are truncated to "Co." and "Ltd.".

The China North Industries Group Co. Ltd., doing business as Norinco Group, and known within China as China Ordnance Industries Group Co. Ltd. (Chinese: 中国兵器工业集团有限公司), is a Chinese state-run conglomerate involved in the production of vehicles, chemicals, machinery and other industrial products. It is China's largest weapons manufacturer, producing firearms and other military ordnance for both Chinese domestic use and export. Though most commonly associated with its cold war-era Soviet and to a lesser extent Western weapon knock-offs, the company now has its own range of locally-designed systems.

The company's predecessor was the China North Industries (Group) Co. (Norinco (G), Chinese: 中国北方工业（集团）总公司), known within China as China Ordnance Industry Co. (COIC, Chinese: 中国兵器工业总公司), a state-owned company founded in 1988 that oversaw China's ordnance industries. In 1999, COIC was divided into two entities, one was Norinco Group, and the other was the China South Industries Group (CSGC).

Norinco Group owns an identically-named (and technically older) subsidiary named China North Industries Co. Ltd., also known as simply Norinco, which handles the sale of Norinco Group-produced equipment internationally. Founded in 1980 as the export arm of China's ordnance industry ministry, Norinco (G) and Norinco Group adopted the subsidiary's name as its international business name for the sake of name recognition.

Norinco is jointly owned by Norinco Group and CSGC, and recently they have handled marketing for small arms made by other small arms makers in China for overseas such as Changfeng Machinery (now a part of Jianshe Industry Group) and Huaqing Machinery.
