“Last year was the first full year in which we fully reaped the benefits of the acquisition of Magna Interiors with some very positive results,” said Grupo Antolin chairman, Ernesto Antolin.
“During 2016 we also consolidated as a platform of growth, innovation and leadership in the manufacture of car interiors. Last year we were present in 42 out of 154 launches that took place worldwide, almost one in three, which puts Grupo Antolin as an essential supplier as car interiors for global manufacturers.”
Grupo Antolin also plans to invest more than EUR380m, 48% more compared to 2016.
Grupo Antolin will invest around EUR100m in one of its key markets, the US. Much of this investment will go to a new factory in Michigan, more than EUR61m, where Grupo Antolin will expect the biggest order in its history and in which estimated production will surpass 400,000 vehicles per year.
