VOXX International Corporation Opens Manufacturing Campus In Orlando, Florida
01/21/2016
Pat Lavelle, President/CEO of VOXX International stated, "This is a major milestone for our Company and I would like to personally thank everyone involved, from Governor Scott to Mayor Jacobs and their respective staffs, and all those who made this facility opening possible. With over 250 product development specialists and engineers on staff, we continue to bring to market new technologies that bridge the gap in consumer and automotive technologies, while bringing the concept of the connected car to life and with this new facility we significantly enhance our production capabilities."
With its new OEM facility operational in Lake Nona, a mixed-use planned community in the city of Orlando, VOXXHirschmann is in position to capitalize on increased customer demand and fulfill its promise to drive new technology applications that bring consumer connectivity and content to and from the vehicle. This facility, which to start will house over 300 employees, has the full support of Enterprise Florida, the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity, CareerSource Florida, Orange County and the Orlando Economic Development Commission.
According to company officials, VOXX International chose Orlando due to its local-based talent pool for expansion, proximity to major transportation hubs and business friendly climate. The decision to consolidate and expand its VOXXHirschmann automotive manufacturing capabilities was driven by customer demand of its new technologies as the Company continues to work with tier-one and OEMs in delivering innovative technologies for the connected car. This facility is tied together with OEM operations in the metro Detroit area.
