Jabil, an electronic product solutions company, officially launched
construction of a new facility in Chennai. Total investment for the project is

running the latest manufacturing processes; a dedicated display for
demonstrating design and product development capabilities in Asia and an office
complex to serve administrative needs,” said Bill Muir, Regional President,
