On February 19, Rosenberger Optical Solutions & Infrastructure (Rosenberger OSI), a noted manufacturer of innovative fiber-optic cabling infrastructures in Europe, announced that a third production site has been established by the company in the Monterrey region of Mexico.
In addition to its existing plant locations in Germany and Hungary (in the cities of Augsburg and Taksony), the company's high-quality cabling solutions will now also be manufactured in Apodaca, Mexico. Thanks to its proximity to the North American sales market, the cabling specialist hopes to shorten the distance to the end customer and increase availability while simultaneously reducing logistics costs. The main development of Rosenberger OSI's products and solutions will remain at the company's headquarters in Augsburg.

Key benefits of the business expansion, according to Rosenberger OSI, include proximity to the customer and optimized project support. "In line with the slogan 'Flexible and fast', Rosenberger OSI can now supply its North American customers even faster," says Schmidt. "The opening of the site in Mexico will bring us closer to our customers, which will enable us to highlight our cabling know-how locally even better."

With regard to the future and economic development in the region, the company's managing director is optimistic. "Our long-term goal is to double the production capacity to serve the North American data center and building cabling market," concludes Schmidt.
