Becton Dickinson to raise production profile in Asia
Plan to manufacture more than half of its products in this region
IN the next 10 years, medical technology firm Becton, Dickinson and Company (BD), which uses Singapore as a base for the region, will manufacture more than half of its products in Asia.
This vision was shared on Monday, at the launch of its expanded operations, as it marked its 25th year in Singapore.
Bill Kozy, BD's executive vice-president and chief operating officer said that the company aims to be "a real device leader" in the region, and while it now manufactures more than half of its products outside Asia, this would change over the next decade as BD gets comfortable with its longer-term strategies.
