Embraer, Mahindra pick Nagpur for potential C-390 assembly line

Embraer and the Mahindra Group jointly selected Nagpur, Maharashtra, India, to evaluate as a prospective site for the assembly of the C-390 Millennium military transport aircraft. The decision was based on several factors including logistical considerations and access to skilled labor within the region. Initial assessments will focus on determining the feasibility of establishing an operational manufacturing facility in Nagpur’s industrial zone. This collaboration represents a significant step towards potentially expanding Embraer's global footprint beyond its traditional South American markets. Representatives from both companies are currently undertaking detailed studies regarding infrastructure requirements and local partnerships.
