Logitech begins making devices in India, says it was a ‘natural’ shift

Logitech has announced recent steps to expand its manufacturing operations beyond China, now beginning to produce personal work solutions products, such as mice and webcams, in India. The decision highlights the company's strategy to reduce the impact of US duties and strengthen its presence in India, the world's fastest-growing major economy.

Delphine Donné, vice president and general manager of Personal Work Solutions at Logitech, explained that the move allows the company to get closer to their customers and users, improve agility, and reduce transportation time. Initial efforts focus on assembling mice and webcams in a facility in Manesar, Gurugram, with plans to expand the portfolio in collaboration with partners.

The company's decision to manufacture in India is part of a broader diversification strategy, with India being the seventh manufacturing footprint for Logitech.
