According to Ravi Oswal, Chief Operating Officer, “When the adjacent property recently became available, we seized the opportunity to expand our capabilities and manufacturing footprint further. We immediately saw it as an opportunity to keep pace with the growing demand for our products. We are so pleased with the outcome–it is in sync with our brand and provided us the opportunity to create a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility and comfortable workspace for the Solecta team.”
