By the middle of the year, around 800 employees will move into the new building of BMZ China. "BMZ China will invest around seven million euros in the new location to meet future project requirements, such as for big batteries, and to create the necessary capacity for further growth in the Chinese market," explains Sven Bauer, CEO & Founder of the BMZ Group. In this context, the number of production lines with a higher degree of automation will gradually be doubled over the medium term to around 36 lines.
Increase in efficiency
In the future, more space will be available for the production area in order to be able to arrange the lines more efficiently. In addition, supermarket-level storage will be built close to the production lines, optimizing operations and increasing efficiency. Some of the new production areas will be equipped with new line equipment right from the start. The existing production lines will move gradually. Production will be maintained transitionally in parallel at both sites. BMZ China was founded in Shenzhen in 2006 and has been continuously growing since then. In 2017 sales increased by almost 70 percent compared with the previous year.
