With the investment, Continental expects to generate more than 1,500 new jobs over the next three years, it said in a statement.
The company added that both the current plant’s expansion and the construction of a new automotive electronics factory are 75% complete, with the projects expected to be “inaugurated and operational at the beginning of next year.”
Continental’s current Las Colinas plant in Silao, Guanajuato, is located in the heart of central Mexico and is focused on car brake components.
Continental Mexico President Marco Galluzzi cited Guanajuato’s “competitive” geographic position and highway connectivity as reasons for the expansion, which aims to “continue growing” the company’s capacity in the region, he said.
