ZF product and production strategy
ZF product strategy: technological leadership
providing highest customer value with innovative products
ZF production strategy: Manufacturing of products in the market for the market to minimize currency
exchange risks, transportation cost risks (also natural hedging opportunities) and close proximity to customers
ZF strategy execution: Automatic transmissions (A/T) for USA are currently produced in Germany
ZF’s current & future USA customer base, and the opportunity for future growth justified local production of A/T’s
Localization of A/T requires $$$$ investments
ZF started a site selection process in North America

Sticky Note
I took out the right to work text. Just for political reasons. We don't know if UAW is in the audience and we don't need any fuel for the fire.
