Have you seen an increasing number of new BMWs cruising the streets of Bala Cynwyd. However, this is not the only place in which many drivers are choosing BMW growing enthusiasm. Consumers across the globe are becoming BMW enthusiasts. In an effort to please drivers' strong desire for impressive handling, speed and elegant appearance, BMW manufactured more than 70 percent more BMW cars than in the previous year. This increase marks the largest number of units ever produced by BMW.
As the demand for BMW vehicles continues to rise, the automaker has begun determining ways in which it can increase production. The solution they settled on is to invest $900 million into the development of a BMW production plant in Spartanburg, South Carolina. This creation of this facility will add 300 new jobs.
This expansion follows on the heels of four similar growth initiatives made 1994 (when the facility first opened) to 2011. One thing to note about the Spartanburg facility is that like the cars it makes, the plant is state of the art. Since 2006, the South Carolina BMW plant has managed to reduce energy consumer by nearly 50 percent, and waste/car by 65 percent.
BMW will invest the aforementioned $900 million into the eco-conscious plant 2012-2014. The 300 new jobs will all be added by the end of this year.
