Wipro Infotech, the India and Middle East IT business of Wipro, has unveiled its second manufacturing unit at Kotdwar in Uttarakhand. Spread over 5.8 acres of land at the foothills of the Himalayas, the plant will manufacture servers, storage, notebooks, desktops and allied IT electronics.
The plant has a manufacturing capacity of approximately 1000 machines a day. The company however did not disclose the investment in this project. According to the company, due to its proximity to the northern parts of India, the unit will cater to customers in northern parts of the country.
