Description (French)
Ce projet vise à développer une stratégie d’ingénierie pour la relocalisation de la production de tapis de sol haut de gamme pour voitures au Canada. En fabriquant localement, TuxMat peut être le premier à commercialiser des produits fabriqués au Canada, se positionner pour capter la demande de toutes les ventes de voitures neuves et acquérir un avantage concurrentiel dans la distribution en Amérique du Nord. Cette initiative permettra une plus grande flexibilité pour répondre à la demande américaine, renforçant ainsi la réputation de TuxMat en matière de qualité et d’innovation.
