Notably, our industrial cutting tool business has achieved remarkable growth in recent years and is expanding globally,\u201d stated Kyocera Corporation Chairman Tetsuo Kuba during a speech given at the groundbreaking ceremony. \u201cWith many customers in China, we decided to construct this new manufacturing plant in Ganzhou to further develop our business. We hope that our business in Ganzhou will not only contribute to the region and our company, but also play a role in strengthening the relationship between China and Japan.\u201d
\nKPTG plans to begin operations at the new plant in January 2016 to produce carbide inserts. The plant will become Kyocera\u2019s fourth manufacturing base for industrial cutting tools in China, in addition to its plants in Dongguan, Zhuhai and Shanghai.
