Madhya Pradesh. The additional capacity at the facility will ramp up the
production of tyres by 4,500 (units) per day.
Bridgestone has invested Rs 259 crore for the capacity expansion project. The
expansion will in turn increase the total production capacity by around 40 per
cent. The company is expected to focus more on the Indian market and is looking
for newer possibilities to grow further.
