Mexico is a strategic production base for the automotive giants, where the experience, quality and research and development power of the industry that settles here are combined, and this is how Standard Profil sees it, which decided to expand the facilities of its plant located in the Amistad Industrial Park, in Apaseo el Grande, Guanajuato.

The Turkish-owned company has 40 plants around the world. The Mexico factory, opened in 2014, is Standard Profil Group's first investment in North America.
