Delphi to build second electronics plant in Katowicka
American electronics manufacturer Delphi Delco Electronic Systems will begin
construction of its second plant in Poland by the end of the year. The
13,000-square-meter factory is to be located in the Katowicka Special
Economic Zone (SSE) and will manufacture car audio-systems and possibly
electronic engine-control systems. Delphi opened its first plant in Tychy in
1998, making transmission systems and semi-axles for Opel and Daewoo. By the
end of the year the Tychy plant will also be making semi-axles for Saab and
Toyota Yaris cars. Last year, Delphi Automotive Systems made $1.1 billion in
net profits on $29.2 billion revenue worldwide. (Puls Biznesu, page 8) T.J.
