We will let the market drive the expansion of our new facility

Bastian Solutions, a Toyota Advanced Logistics firm, announced the launch of its new manufacturing facility just outside Bangalore, Karnataka, in May 2023. Bastian's first manufacturing facility in India is planned to be operational by October 2023.

“We will let the market drive the expansion of our new facility. As a result, we will begin with our DC conveyor product line and from there fulfil the needs of the Indian market consumer, that's what we are going to drive into that business,” said James Clark, VP of Manufacturing Strategy and Operations, Bastian Solutions.

At the new Banglore facility, Bastian Solutions plans to bring almost a replica of what they are using in their Westville, Indiana facility in the United States.

“We will begin operations in Bangalore with an automated assembly line that will allow us to manage track time and so push quality back into the product. We don't have circumstances where team members are hurrying or attempting to hurry through an operation since the automated assembly line stops that from happening. It keeps workers safe and guarantees quality is built into them. Every product will also contain our Quality Management System, which will be digitally integrated into the production process,” added Clark.
