Nissan Motor India sets up new head office in Chennai
Nissan India has set up its new corporate head office in Chennai, from where Nissan’s operations in India will be controlled. Nissan will, of course, also continue with its office in Mumbai, which will operate as a regional office with product planning and sales & marketing teams from Hover Automotive India, Nissan’s strategic alliance partner in the country.
Nissan’s head office in Chennai already has a staff strength of more than 50 people, and this number is expected to double by the end of 2010. ‘This marks yet another significant milestone for us at Nissan, as we move to our new corporate office in Chennai. We have come to India to become a major player and Chennai will play an important and strategic role in our Indian operations as we gear up for the start of production of our locally made global compact car in May 2010,’ said Kiminobu Tokuyama, Managing Director and CEO, NMIPL.
