Hisense, EPACK Team Up For AC Production Hub In Andhra Pradesh

Aiming for eco-friendly manufacturing of air conditioners and boosting revenue, Hisense and EPACK have joined forces to build a production facility in India.

Consumer electronics manufacturer Hisense has partnered with EPACK Durable Limited (EDL) to set up a production facility in Sricity, Andhra Pradesh, to primarily produce air conditioners for Indian markets. 

As part of this alliance, EDL will invest in advanced production lines for various products, including washing machines and refrigerators, using Hisense’s proprietary design range. This will enhance asset utilisation while maintaining quality standards.
