Emerson, a global technology and industrial software leader, today launched the Emerson Xi ‘an Industrial Park in Xi ‘an, Shaanxi Province, to further enhance its service and innovation capabilities in industrial automation and supply chain management to support customers in China and the Asia-Pacific region. Emerson President and CEO Lal Karsanbhai, government agencies, customers and partners attended the launch ceremony.
Located in Xi ‘an High-tech Industrial Development Zone, Emerson Industrial Park covers an area of more than 25,000 square meters, including more than 2,000 square meters of laboratories. It provides its customers with industrial automation products and services, business management, marketing and intellectual property consulting, software research and development, supply chain management and warehousing services and sales services. Guided by Emerson’s net zero emissions goal, the park is equipped with clean energy facilities, and the on-site photovoltaic power generation project is expected to support about 10 percent of the park’s electricity when it becomes operational in mid-2023.
Emerson entered the China market in 1979 and started operations in Xi ‘an in 2007. Today Xi ‘an has become the sales headquarters in Northwest China and the shared resource platform for Emerson’s business in Asia Pacific. Emerson’s journey in Xi ‘an has been accompanied by the development of the local economy and industry. In the past decade, Xi ‘an has continuously optimized its economic structure, and its secondary industry, which is dominated by industry, has been continuously upgraded, becoming an important engine of economic growth and continuously injecting a steady flow of power to promote the high-quality development of Xi ‘an regional economy.
The biggest reason for our success in China is the hard work and dedication of our local management team and employees, and the trust they have built with our customers, suppliers, partners and other stakeholders, said Lal Karsanbhai, president and CEO of Emerson. I am confident that the China market will continue to play a key role in Emerson’s future growth opportunities.
Over the past 40 years of investment in China, Emerson has used its experience and technical expertise in automation, digitalization, energy conservation and environmental protection to provide solutions to customers, including those in Shaanxi Province.
