A Peer Discussion about India Manufacturing Location & Site Selection: Going Beyond Desk Research
May 2026: Many companies are looking at India as a serious candidate location for their next manufacturing plant. However, India is a complex subcontinent and not all required information to make the decision can be found online. How do you go beyond desk research and take the real critical factors that matter into account?
BCI Global recently hosted a webinar, where Anup Panda, Head of SCM Asia at Siegwerk shared his real world experience of having decided on a new location for a plant in India. Joined by Saurabh Mehrotra, Director India at BCI Global, and Luc Kremers, VP APAC at BCI Global, they addressed the following topics:
- The Must-Haves: Key factors for India that don't show up in a Google search
- Why Site Visits Matter: Uncovering what on-the-ground reality looks like before you take a decision and sign a deal
- The Independent View: How location and site selection specialists bridge the gap between location and operational success
Specific topics that have been covered include:
- Where are the talent pools?
- How about investment incentives in India?
- Quality of the infrastructure?
- Significance of the trade deal with the EU?
- Can India serve as a pan-Asia manufacturing hub?
