EVBox announces plans for a North American headquarters and production facility
EVBox signed the lease for its first North American headquarters and production facility, just outside Chicago, Illinois.
The facility will take up approximately 60,000 sq. ft. of the Innovation Park campus in Libertyville, IL, located around 40 miles north of Chicago.
At this new site, EVBox will be able to produce around 200 units of DC charging units per week in the initial phase, a level of production expected to create between 80 and 120 new jobs in the immediate region.
The company has already offices in New York City, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, and thanks to its centralised location, the headquarters in Libertyville will enhance EVBox's North American presence. This new location means that EVBox will be in closer proximity to its American customers, allowing both communication and production to be quicker, smoother, and more environmentally friendly.
With over 6.5 million new EVs expected to be on American roads by 2025, EVBox intends to further strengthen its position as the global EVSE industry leader with this move. The new factory and headquarters demonstrate EVBox's commitment to eMobility and helping achieve a zero-emission future.
“EVBox has successfully built electric charging infrastructure in Europe and is devoted to establishing sustainable transportation as a practice that moves the entire planet toward a zero-emission future. With over 10 years of expertise, we are confident that we can contribute significantly to the eMobility market in North America. Having a factory in Illinois means that we will be closer to our American customers and will help strengthen local production and employment,” said Kristof Vereenooghe, CEO of EVBox.
