NI Corporation (NYSE: HNI) announced it is opening a new office furniture manufacturing plant in Saltillo, Mexico. The facility will provide additional capacity to meet HNI’s growing customer demand for office seating. Contingent upon regulatory approvals, the new 160,000 square foot facility is expected to employ an additional 250 workers and will begin production in the first quarter of 2022. The plant will be located in the Mencorsa Industrial Park, Colonia San Jose de los Cerritos.

HNI is partnering with American Industries to help establish the Mexican operation.

We are pleased to be working with the Coahuila government and American Industries and appreciate their support of this important project.” HNI Corporation (NYSE: HNI) is a manufacturer of workplace furnishings and residential building products, operating under two segments.
