The Serbian Economist reports that the Chinese company Techron Automotive is planning to build its first foreign plant for the production of plastic car components in the city of Inđija (Vojvodina, Serbia), which will strengthen the country’s role as a regional hub for the automotive industry. This was announced by the Municipality of Inđija, as cited by Serbia-business.eu.
The construction is planned to start by the end of this year. According to the published information, the plant in Indjija will be Techron’s first enterprise outside China. At the first stage, a 4.5 thousand square metre production building is expected to be erected. After reaching full capacity, the plant will be able to provide about 200 jobs.
The plant is scheduled to open in mid-2026.
Techron produces components for the world’s leading car manufacturers – Volkswagen, Porsche, Audi, Chery, Geely and others. The product line includes engine and transmission parts, interior and exterior components, as well as control system components.
Experts note that the project is part of Serbia’s strategy to deepen specialisation in the automotive industry and automotive components: the country already has dozens of plants producing harnesses, electronics and plastic parts for European and Asian brands. For the region, this means not only new jobs, but also the need to invest in energy, logistics and vocational education in order to consolidate the effect of the new investor’s arrival
