Delphi to move auto parts production to Polish plants

US-based auto-parts producer Delphi will move part of its production from several Western Europe locations to its factories in Krosno, Ostrow Wielkopolski and Tychy within the next several months. "Lower labor costs in Poland coupled with some free space in our plants was a major factor which influenced the decision," said Leszek Waliszewski, president of Delphi subsidiary Automotive Systems Polska. Waliszewski said that in September one of Delphics plants in Holland will move clutch production intended for the spare parts market to Krosno. Apart from its plants in Tychy, Krosno and Ostrow Wielkopolski, Delphi has subsidiaries in Krakow, Warsaw, Gdansk, Blonie and Jelesnia. (Puls Biznesu, p. 4) A.Z.
