1991 - 2017
MTA becomes international
MTA becomes international
Throughout all this, while remaining firmly rooted in Italy, MTA did not
want to forgo the possibility of expanding abroad.
With the creation of MTA
Brasil, a branch created to meet the needs of Automakers, in 1995 MTA began its
internationalization. Thanks to its presence, MTA has been able to follow its
European
customers, who began production there in the late 1980s and needed to
have their supplier nearby.
Founded in 2004 in a small rented facility, MTA Slovakia has grown over
the years with the purchase of a large area, which it has been able to develop.
Today, it has tripled in size and employs nearly 400 people.
In 2009 in the city of Pune MTA founds India's largest automotive hub, where all the major local and foreign manufacturers are located. MTA India is highly valued by all the manufacturers for its wide range of high quality, versatile, and affordable components.
Thanks to the license released by the Chinese government, MTA China and
began operations in 2014 by opening an office in Shanghai. Soon afterwards MTA China
moved to the city’s
Jinshan industrial district, and became an essential element of the large
automotive market, where many European customers have also set up shop to start
production in local plants.
In order to manage its relations and supply contracts with large
American and Nafta area (USA, Canada and Mexico) customers, MTA established an
office in Chicago in 2007. This presence has allowed it to carry out numerous
projects, which are followed by the on-site technicians and salespeople. In
2015, thanks to the results obtained and the completion of many custom projects
for American OEMs, the need arose to open a production unit in Santiago de Querétaro. MTA Mexico is now more involved than ever in the manufacturing of
products for electric vehicles.
MTA’s latest overseas
headquarters project, MTA Morocco, established in 2017, is perhaps its most ambitious. The extremely
fast turnaround times and modern dimensions bear witness to the excellent
organization of the Moroccan automotive ecosystem and its numerous competitive
advantages. Like the others, this branch began with the production of
electrical components, but it will be the first to pursue electronics R&D
and the relative manufacturing.
