Musashi established MAP-CH as its first production site in China in 2003. Then Musashi Auto Parts (Nantong) Co., Ltd. (MAP-NT) and Musashi Auto Parts (Tianjin) Co., Ltd. (MAP-TJ) were followed. In order to satisfy customer’s strong demands for Electric Vehicles’ components, we have decided to build the fourth plant in China close to the original MAP-CH location.
