Material handling solutions manufacturer Beumer Group has invested INR2bn (£18.9bn) in a new production city in Reliance MET City/Jhajjar (Haryana state)

With an area of more than ten acres, the new plant will be placed at a highly strategic location, Beumer said, with Reliance MET City offering high-end infrastructure and support. Beumer will be the first German company to set up production in the development zone, it said. Construction work will commence this summer, with the inauguration of the new plant scheduled for September 2025.

Beumer Group has been active in India since 2003. The company has taken various steps to strengthen its position in the country, for instance through business segment diversification. It has also acquired ENEXCO Technologies India and FAM India, as well as establishing a modern manufacturing unit at Naurangpur, Haryana.

Setting up a manufacturing unit in the context is truly 'plug and play', with Reliance staying true to its goal of developing a 'Model Economic Town’,” said Nitin Vyas, Cluster Asia CEO, Beumer Group.
