Automotive components manufacturer Astemo plans to expand its operations in Muncie, Indiana. The more than $11 million project is expected to create up to nine jobs in Delaware County.

The investment will include additional injection molding capacity and a new assembly line at the company's existing manufacturing complex to produce intake manifolds for internal combustion engine (ICE) and hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) applications.

“We appreciate the support of the Economic Development Alliance and the Muncie community,” said Astemo Americas Vice President of Operations Alejandro Navarro Lopez. “This partnership reinforces Astemo's commitment to investing in Muncie, supporting our employees and driving long-term growth.”

To support the project, the Muncie City Council approved a five-year tax abatement for the expansion.

“Astemo's decision to expand its Muncie operation speaks to the strength of this facility, its workforce and our community,” noted Economic Development Alliance of Muncie-Delaware County Vice President of Economic Development Traci Lutton. “Manufacturing companies with national and global footprints continually evaluate where to place future production and investment. We're grateful Astemo continues to choose Muncie and Delaware County, and we're proud to support a company that has demonstrated such a long-term commitment to our community.”

Astemo specializes in advanced mobility systems and components for passenger vehicles, motorcycles, and commercial vehicles.
