Plastic Component Industries (PCI) is opening its first-ever international facility in Ontario to manufacture a variety of automotive parts, as it expands into the North American market.

PCI will be investing $4 million in the new facility, which will create 80 jobs over the next three years. The investment will help to strengthen the company’s global footprint by catering to Ontario’s automotive sector – one of the reasons PCI chose to expand in the province.

“We are thrilled to be a part of one of the most stable, innovative and welcoming eco system. We realized that this eco system has all the key ingredients and support from the government for our business to flourish and succeed,” says Nirantar Kumar Dhupar, managing director, Plastic Component Industries.

“We are thrilled with PCI’s decision to open their first international facility in Ontario. The province’s automotive industry is second to none, allowing investors to plug into our innovative ecosystem, premier talent pool, and award-winning manufacturing sector. This announcement highlights the importance of building relationships around the world, especially during a time of global uncertainty. Our virtual trade and investment mission to India reinforces our commitment to creating economic opportunities for both Ontario and India today and well into the future,” says Vic Fedeli, Ontario Minister of Economic Development, Job Creation and Trade.

Established in 1987, PCI manufactures injection molded plastic and sheet metal components. With three factories located across India, PCI supplies parts to Indian tier one companies and OEMs including Toyota, MG Motors and Maruti Suzuki.
