Does Manufacturing in Germany Still Make Sense for White Goods

By partnering with Panattoni to develop this next-generation manufacturing site, BSH is reinforcing the competitiveness of its global premium brands, Bosch and Siemens. The move signals a clear commitment to market-leading innovation and the enduring value of  Made in Germany quality in an increasingly challenging global environment.
