Malani talked about the company’s global local strategy, which means they manufacture products in the same regions where they sell them. “So, it is not that we are importing, or exporting too much of our parts. Having said so, there are commodities which move in and out, and commodities in general are passed through in most of the world,” he said.
Motherson operates in 45 countries and therefore, has the flexibility to adjust production and shift manufacturing to more favourable locations.
