Global tech company Logitech begins product manufacturing in India

Technology giant Logitech has announced the commencement of local manufacturing in India, with a production facility opening in Manesar. This move aligns with the company's commitment to the 'Make in India' initiative. The facility will initially focus on manufacturing Logitech's personal workspace solutions, such as keyboards and webcams, before expanding to include more components and parts.

Sree Chenincherry, Logitech's chief supply chain operations officer, stated that this was the first step towards broader manufacturing in India, with the facility set to progress in stages, prioritizing local sourcing of components before exports. Logitech's partnership for this manufacturing operation remains undisclosed, though the company announced it as a new collaboration.

The company's vice-president and general manager of Personal Work Solutions, Delphine Donné, emphasized that the new manufacturing facility in India would uphold the same high-quality standards as its existing products. She also highlighted that India plays a crucial dual role for Logitech, being a fast-growing market for personal work solutions and supporting the development of its design-led, software, and AI-enabled hardware through its Global Capability Center in Chennai.
