Establishing a joint venture between Bosch and Carrier – two strong and respected companies – will allow us to leverage our research and development resources and continue to deliver high-quality manufactured products to our customers.”
“The Carrier team is excited by the opportunities this JV will provide,” said Chris Nelson, President, residential and commercial systems, Carrier. “By bringing together the strengths of both companies, from Carrier’s rich legacy of innovation to Bosch’s well-equipped manufacturing plant in Fort Lauderdale, we will deliver a high level of value to our customers.”
The transaction will be completed pending securing all necessary regulatory approvals. Both firms said financial terms of the agreement will not be publicly disclosed.
