YIZUMI-HPM: Expanding Facility for North American Growth

2024-10-11

On October 10th, local time, YIZUMI-HPM holds a grand ceremony for the new facility expansion at its Ohio factory, as well as an open house event. This move comes after the opening of YIZUMI's subsidiaries in Thailand and Mexico earlier this year, marking another significant milestone in the company's global layout.

PART 01

Collaborating with Industry Leaders to Shape North America's Future

During the event, Mr. Richard Yan, Chairman and CEO of YIZUMI, delivers a speech. He first reviews the significant milestone for YIZUMI in 2011—the successful acquisition of HPM, a renowned American machinery manufacturer with over a century of history, along with all its intellectual property rights. This move significantly boosted YIZUMI's competitiveness in the international market.

Mr. Richard Yan highlights that with well-known brand HPM, YIZUMI has strengthened its global market presence, expanded into strategic markets, and achieved new milestones overseas, thereby elevating its brand's international profile.

And he introduces the expansion project of the Ohio factory. He noted that the expansion project, with a total investment of over $11 million, is one of YIZUMI's largest investment projects in North America and globally in recent years. This project will significantly enhance YIZUMI's position in the North American and global markets, providing strong support for achieving the strategic goal of "becoming a world-class enterprise in the field of molding equipment." In the future, the company is expected to further accelerate its response to the southern U.S. market and consider launching a second construction project to continue promoting YIZUMI's expansion in the global market.

Mr. Mike Meyer, President of the North American Die Casting Association is invited to attend the event and deliver a speech. Senior managers, business partners, and customers of YIZUMI gathered together to witness this important moment.

About YIZUMI-HPM in America

With the background of the ever-changing global manufacturing, YIZUMI, as a leading enterprise in the molding equipment industry, is steadily expanding its global market footprint with its keen market insight and steadfast global development strategy. Among these, the expansion project of YIZUMI's production plant in Ohio, USA, is a significant strategic move to deepen its North American market layout and strengthen its global competitiveness.

The intention of the expansion is to significantly increase YIZUMI's inventory levels of machines and spare parts in the United States, thereby further accelerating delivery response and enhancing customer satisfaction. It is reported that the expansion covers a main building and internal facilities of 44,000 square feet. From research and design planning to construction and final delivery, it has taken three years, which fully demonstrates YIZUMI's high regard for the North American market and commitment to long-term development.

During the expansion process, YIZUMI faced numerous challenges, including the rampant pandemic, uncertainty regarding American construction standards, difficulties in selecting a design institute and construction team, and the absence of original land drawings. However, with the close collaboration between the Chinese and American teams and partners, these difficulties were overcome one by one, and the expansion project was ultimately successfully completed.

The expanded Ohio factory has achieved significant improvements in production capacity and warehousing logistics. Specifically, the lifting capacity of the factory's cranes has been doubled from the original. At the same time, with the expansion of the new factory, the enhancement of lifting capabilities, and the comprehensive improvement of loading and unloading equipment and facilities, all aspects of equipment production, maintenance, modification, loading and unloading have been greatly optimized, significantly enhancing overall operational efficiency.

The expanded Ohio factory is also equipped with more advanced facilities. These facilities not only fully meet the needs of specialized application such as mold testing, customer collaboration in research and development, and the exploration of new materials and processes, but also provide strong support for YIZUMI's improvement in the fields of innovation and customer service.

The expansion of the new facility and the establishment of YIZUMI Mexico have created strong strategic alignment. This move has not only optimized YIZUMI's global manufacturing and supply chain but also significantly enhanced its service capabilities in the local market. It aligns with YIZUMI's global strategy, aiming to boost competitiveness and deepen partnerships with customers worldwide through a combination of global reach and localized operations.

It is worth mentioning that the expansion of YIZUMI's Ohio factory and the establishment of YIZUMI Mexico subsidiary have formed a close strategic synergy. This layout not only optimizes YIZUMI's global production and supply chain network but also significantly enhances its localization service capabilities in the North American. This aligns closely with YIZUMI's globalization strategy, which aims to continuously enhance brand competitiveness by combining global layout with localized operations, deepen cooperation with global customers, and jointly explore broader development prospects.

In the future, YIZUMI will continue to deepen its "Global Operation" strategy, optimizing supply chains, and enhancing service quality to strengthen its global market leadership and drive the future of the molding equipment industry.
