en.Wedoany.com Reported - ECOCABLE will invest over 540 million pesos in Gómez Palacio, Durango, Mexico, to build a new factory focused on the manufacturing and assembly of electrical components for electric vehicles. The project is expected to create 200 direct jobs.

According to Durango Governor Esteban Villegas Villarreal, construction of the plant will begin in the coming weeks and is scheduled to be completed by the end of this year. The company expects to start hiring the first 100 employees in early 2027, reaching 200 direct jobs by the end of the same year. The governor stated that the investment of over 540 million pesos has been finalized with ECOCABLE, with construction starting next month and initial recruitment beginning in early 2027.

Currently, ECOCABLE operates a factory in Durango City specializing in the production of wiring harnesses. The new plant will focus on manufacturing oxygen-free copper cables, a component widely used in the electrical and automotive industries, particularly closely related to the electric mobility sector. The new factory will enhance production integration between the company's two plants in the state. According to Villegas, some raw materials currently imported from South Korea can now be produced locally, which will boost manufacturing capacity and create greater development opportunities for the Durango City plant.

The governor added that the company's expansion vision is to progress gradually through 2030, with the possibility of transferring some of the technology development processes currently conducted in South Korea to Durango. This prospect will solidify the state's position in the global value chain of the electrical and automotive industries. This investment enhances the attractiveness of the Laguna region as a destination for new manufacturing projects. In addition to promoting employment, the plant will drive the development of local suppliers and strengthen the industrial ecosystem for high-growth sectors such as electric mobility.

ECOCABLE is a company specializing in the manufacturing of wiring solutions and electrical components for industrial and automotive applications. The company already operates a factory in Durango producing electrical wiring harnesses, and the new project will focus on the production of oxygen-free copper cables. This expansion is part of its strategy to strengthen supply chain integration in Mexico, reduce dependence on imported raw materials, and expand capacity to meet industry demand.
