Denso to Add Parts Plant in Cambodia

Denso Corp. plans to open a new factory in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, in March 2016 to make automotive magnetos and oil coolers.

The 2.2 billion-yen ($19 million) facility will supply carmakers across the ASEAN region, according to the company.

Denso says the 9,600 sq-meter (103,300 sq-ft) plant initially will employ 300 workers, then expand to 380 in 2017.
