Novares has opened its first site in Russia, in Togliatti, home to the AvtoVAZ factory that produces Lada cars.
It is the 13th new manufacturing site the supplier has inaugurated in the past seven years, as well as extending 23 existing factories, as part of its international expansion strategy to be close to its customers.
The company has rented a 1,860 sq m site situated in the industrial park of AvtoVAZ, which is part of the Renault-Nissan Alliance.
The factory will begin producing engine parts in May 2020 then Novares will rent a further 2,600 sq m at the start of 2021 and expand production to include making and assembling roof bars.
The site will employ 130 workers by 2021 and is anticipated to achieve a EUR13m turnover by 2025.
The factory is one of three, following Mioveni in Romania and Kenitra in Morocco, that Novares has set up to better accompany the Renault-Nissan Alliance as it increases its production around the world.
