#WeAreNAACAM: NAACAM welcomes 𝗠𝗔𝗡𝗡+𝗛𝗨𝗠𝗠𝗘𝗟 𝗦𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗔𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮 as a manufacturing member and applauds its R60 million investment in South Africa’s automotive sector. This investment reflects the confidence of autos component suppliers in the country’s manufacturing capabilities and reinforces the importance of localisation and supply chain resilience.
The opening of MANN+HUMMEL’s new production plant contributes to the SA Automotive Masterplan 2035 objectives, which seeks to increase locally produced automotive components and strengthen South Africa’s position as a key player in the global automotive industry. The new facility will produce 600,000 high-performance filtration units annually for the commercial vehicle and passenger vehicles’ aftermarket, improving local supply chain efficiencies and reducing lead times.
NAACAM CEO Renai Moothilal remarked, “NAACAM welcomes this investment, which will create job opportunities and support skills development in its surrounding community. It is also positive to see MANN+HUMMEL’s sustainable production approach, which includes the use of solar power and the reduce, reuse, and recycle initiatives. This aligns with industry efforts to drive more environmentally responsible manufacturing practices.” Read the full release:
