Savaria Opens Querétaro Mexico Factory
22 Novembro 2022 - 9:30AM
Savaria Corporation (“Savaria”) (TSX: SIS) a global leader in the
accessibility industry, recently hosted a grand opening celebration
of its new 95,000-square-foot factory in Querétaro City, Mexico.
Strategically located to better serve the
growing demand of the Savaria US-based dealer network, the new
building was constructed over the past seven months in Querétaro
City, a fast-growing economic center. The facility is modelled
after Savaria Huizhou (China), Savaria’s highly successful
operation providing subassembly services. The proximity to the US
market will reduce lead times and freight costs, as well as adding
overall capacity to meet revenue growth.
A grand opening celebration was held on November
12 welcoming employees and their families. Savaria is hiring
additional staff with a goal of 100 employees by the end of 2023.
Production of the Savaria Multilift, a popular vertical platform
lift for home and commercial applications, is already underway.
“This marks another great achievement for
Savaria, and I thank all the employees who participated in the
preparation and opening of our new operation,” commented Sébastien
Bourassa, Operations and Integration Vice President.
With the addition of the Mexico operation,
Savaria has over one million square feet of distribution and
production space over 17 facilities. Optimization of all facilities
is continuous in order to improve global reach and increase
efficiencies across the corporation.
