Production, Mobile, CALA, Mexico: Nokia has now opened the extension to its Reynosa, Tamaulipas plant in Mexico, which is intended to boost its mobile-device production.
With an investment of more than US$50 million, the expansion provides greater capacity and flexibility to meet the requirements of Nokia customers in Mexico, and Latin and North America. The new facility is located near the present Nokia factory in Reynosa. By increasing its capacity in Reynosa, Nokia is strengthening its future competitive position. "The production plant facilities in Reynosa are an integral part of our global manufacturing system," said Philip de la Vega, Managing Director, Nokia Mexico. "The expansion of our plant reflects our commitment to Mexico. We employ approximately 1,800 people at the factory," declared Jeff Marquis, General Manager of Nokia's Reynosa plant. * Nokia has nine factories producing mobile devices worldwide, and the tenth factory in Chennai, India will be inaugurated later this month. Nokia also has a sales office in Mexico City. more info: www.nokia.com |
