“This expansion is a step forward in making a self-reliant India. LG Electronics is fully confident to make India a strong manufacturing hub. We will be also exporting from this facility,” said LG Electronics India MD Hong Ju Jeon.

This year, we are commencing side-by-side refrigerator production in India at a manufacturing facility in Pune. The company, which was established in January 1997 in India and completed over 25 years, has two manufacturing units at Greater Noida and Pune.
