Welspun Living To Expand Manufacturing In US

New Delhi: Home textiles major Welspun Living Ltd is looking to expand its manufacturing footprint in the US with an eye on being closer to customers of its largest market, according to Managing Director and CEO Dipali Goenka.

Despite US President Donald Trump’s tariff threats, the company is optimistic that even if it were to be imposed it will come in a very mutual manner considering India’s global standing, but Welspun Living is preparing to thrive in uncertain times, which it has been doing since the COVID-19 pandemic days, Goenka told media in an interview here.

“We are in conversation to set up a utility bedding plant at Ohio, where we now have the pillow plant,” she said when asked about the company’s manufacturing footprint expansion plans in the US. She did not elaborate on the planned investment for the bedding plant at Ohio saying talks are still on.
