“We are proud to support our customer Fiat in developing and growing its business in Serbia. With our products, we contribute to the success of the 500L,” said Marzio Raveggi, vice president and general manager of Johnson Controls’ Fiat business unit during the inauguration of the two plants.
Johnson Controls’ new seating plant is located in the Grosnica Supplier Park near the city of Kragujevac. The interiors plant, a joint venture between Johnson Controls and Magneti Marelli, is located within the Fiat Automobiles Serbia (FAS) facility.
