Japanese electronics firm Omron Corp is ramping up production in India to support the country's objective of becoming a global manufacturing and exports hub. The company is expanding the manufacture of automation and healthcare products, specifically targeting incentives offered by the administration of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Omron's healthcare division has already initiated the production of blood pressure monitors in Chennai. While these devices are currently intended for the domestic Indian market, the company plans to use the facility to export products to Africa and Europe.
