Being the fastest growing economy in the world, India is an important market for every business house. The well-educated, skilled, and English-speaking young population makes India an even more attractive place for business. In that regard, the State of Tamil Nadu plays a highly crucial role.
“Famous for its tradition, culture, and hospitality, Chennai city is very dear and close to our hearts. In fact, the first Branch Office, after establishing our headquarters in Bangalore in 1993, was in Chennai in 1994. Since then, we have been serving the region by enhancing our services day by day,” Dr Inaba added.
In addition to the advantages of its geographical location with a port and excellent infrastructure, Chennai has many talented engineers and experts with skills and has become a major industrial city in this country. This has attracted many major automotive manufacturers, which have set up production facilities here.
“There are approximately 5,000 companies in Chennai that are customers of FANUC India. More than 50,000 FANUC CNCs, ROBOTs, and ROBOMACHINEs are in operation in these factories. Exceeding our expectations, this region has developed extremely rapidly. In addition to the Automotive industry, other industries such as Smartphone, Household Appliances, FMCG, and Plastics have expanded into Chennai, increasing the city’s importance even more,” said, Yuki Kita, President & CEO, FANUC India.
“To reach out and serve the industries even better than in the past, we decided to establish our own facility in Chennai and purchased this piece of 4-acre land in Sriperumbudur and built a 67,000 sq ft facility, equipped with all essential infrastructure and resources,” he informed. This is FANUC India’s 4th Technology Center, after Bangalore, Pune, and Manesar.
Conscious of the environment
The new building is designed to be earth-friendly. Materials that are optimal for thermal and acoustic insulation have been used effectively. Exposed concrete and exposed walls feature compressed, stabilized earth blocks. Such a structure offers a comfortable office environment that suits the hot and humid climate of Chennai while being ecological.
