The New Factory of the Multinational in Paraná
The German multinational of agricultural machinery and equipment is not entirely new in Brazil. It has been operating in the country since 2017, in a rented warehouse in the capital of Paraná, in Campo do Santana. With the new investment, the company will move from a limited operation in a 3,000 m² warehouse on an 18,000 m² plot to a 158,000 m² area, of which 32,000 m² are covered.
It is estimated that the workforce will increase from the current 120 employees to 400 in five years in Joinville, in the state of Paraná. So far, R$ 50 million has already been invested to implement the first phase of the factory. With the German multinational’s factory fully operational, the Brazilian market alone will represent a significant position for the group’s overall results worldwide.
