Schneider Electric has set a goal of doubling its exports from India in the next four years. Talking about Schneider Electric’s expansion in India, Mr Tricoire said “We are expanding a lot of our factories and more importantly, we are ramping up our collaboration with local suppliers. We help to ramp up those in terms of capacity, technical capability, especially helping them to globalize in terms of certification”.

To highlight Schneider Electric’s commitment to domestic manufacturing, Mr Tricoire said that given India’s unique requirements, 90% of the company’s products in the Indian market are made locally.
