Poland – SuzoHapp opens new production plant in Poland
By Phil - 23 June 2016
SuzoHapp is currently expanding its manufacturing footprint in Europe.
Having grown its product range in recent years organically through product development and through acquisitions – the focus now is how to best pool the individual product ranges together so that the company knowledge and experience is brought together to one location.
SuzoHapp has expanded its production capacity in response to increased customer demand for the company’s components and solutions, both from existing and new customers. The new European manufacturing hub is able to successfully satisfy clients’ increasing demand.
The new SuzoHapp production facility in Europe is in Poznan, Poland. With over 5,000 square meters this facility is perfectly located for deliveries throughout Europe. SuzoHapp is investing over a half a million Euros into its state-of-the-art Polish manufacturing site. After being in operation less than a month SuzoHapp already employs over fifty staff at the Poznan factory working mainly in production and distribution. SuzoHapp expects to annually manufacture aprox. 100,000 RM5 coin validators and more than 10,000 change machines. The initial capacity planned for change giver validators is 120,000 units per year.
Marcel Oelen, Managing Director of SuzoHapp EMEA, said: “We have consolidated our production strategy to align this with our dedication for customer support throughout the EMEA region. Our investment is aimed at improving quality, productivity and process time, in particular we are strongly focused on optimizing delivery times. We appreciate our customers’ understanding during this transition period and we can assure them that we will cut our lead-times in half in the next few months in order to better meet their expectations.”
Currently in the Polish facility SuzoHapp manufactures coin validators and change giver validators, Comestero change machines, laundry cash points and carwash starter systems.
