Fernando Passalio, highlighting the importance of employment as the best social strategy, highlighted that initiatives like Midea's represent advances not only for the city, but for the entire state of Minas.
He emphasized the need to invest in public policies that attract investments, resulting in the generation of new job vacancies, professional qualifications and, consequently, increased income.
Midea factory could be ready in 2024
The works, covering a vast area of 200 thousand square meters, are expected to be completed by 2024.
During this period, the factory will operate with two distinct production lines: one dedicated to the manufacture of refrigerators and the other focused on the production of clothes washers.
In this way, the investment not only solidifies Midea's presence in the country, but also signals a significant boost for the creation of new job vacancies, with a strategic vision of the new factory as a promising milestone for the local and state economic scenario.
