TBG Bringing Back Harness Manufacturing Capabilities
In a strategic move to counteract the impact of new tariffs, The Bright Group (TBG) has announced a significant increase in its manufacturing capacity in Australia. This decision comes as part of TBG’s broader strategy to mitigate the effects of global trade tensions and ensure the continuity of its supply chain.
TBG will start with bringing back the cable assembly capabilities to capacities.
Bringing back manufacturing to Australia
TBG, which has been operating in Australia since 1995, will be bringing back the capacity manufacturing operations at its Sydney site. TBG aims to see an increase in production lines and workforce to meet the growing demand for locally manufactured products.
The decision to ramp up manufacturing in Australia is a direct response to the recent imposition of tariffs on goods imported from certain countries. These tariffs have created challenges for companies relying on international supply chains. By increasing its local manufacturing capabilities, TBG aims to reduce this impact to our customers and navigate the complexities of the new trade regulations.
