Located in the Technopolis Industrial Acceleration Zone, the new Forvia factory will specialize in the cutting, assembly and manufacturing of textile and leather covers for automobile seats. With this new platform, the group intends to diversify the offer and meet the growing demand of its customers.
The Forvia factory in Salé should generate nearly 1,400 jobs by 2027. The group plans to soon inaugurate another platform on its Kénitra site in order to increase its capacities. This future infrastructure should employ 450 people.
