PKC Group says it is to close its factory in Nogales, Mexico, to “further adapt and align manufacturing capacity to the North American customer base.”
The Nogales production will be transferred to PKC’s existing facility in Torreon, Mexico.
The company says the decision is related to current light vehicle programme build-outs in North America and PKC’s focus on maximising opportunities in the current core customer segments.
