EV Microfactories - Global Market Opportunity
Microfactories are small-to-medium scale manufacturing facilities that use advanced technology and tools to gain a competitive advantage. They are more flexible and scalable than traditional factories, and can provide a high-mix, low-volume pathway to customized products. Microfactories are also agile, able to adapt quickly to customer needs, evolving technologies, and trends.
Microfactories can be used to support operations in remote areas or bring complex supply chain processes closer to consumers or raw materials. Their local production capabilities and ability to respond quickly to demand fluctuations make them a good option for companies looking to future-proof their supply chains.
Finally, advocates of microfactories promise to deliver significant savings in outbound logistics. Rather than having one central factory, having hundreds of smaller factories deployed in proximity to the markets they are providing for means the product is closer to the customer.
