New center will provide technical expertise in developing home appliance products in U.S. market
Midea strengthened its U.S. footprint recently by breaking ground on a $10 million research and development (R&D) center in Louisville, Kentucky. This Midea America Research Center (MARC) is expected to provide technical expertise in developing home appliance products for the U.S. market.
Established in early 2015, MARC has quickly outgrown its initial offices and is now scheduled to move into its custom-designed office and lab space by January 2017. The brand-new 30,000-square-foot building will incorporate state-of-the-art lab facilities, testing equipment, and engineering areas as well as office space for more than 60 people. Midea America’s sales and marketing offices will remain headquartered in New Jersey.
