Yanmar announced an investment of R$ 280 million for the construction of a new factory in the Indaiatuba Industrial District. The project was presented during Agrishow 2026 by Wagner Santaniello, innovation and marketing manager for Yanmar South America. According to the company, construction should begin around May 15th, with delivery of the main structure scheduled for June 2027. The expectation is that operations will begin in August of the same year, if the schedule is maintained. Currently, the company produces approximately 5,000 machines per year in Brazil, operating close to its installed capacity limit. The new plant aims to expand production and eliminate this bottleneck. The projection is that the number of direct employees will increase from approximately 300 to about 500 by 2030, in addition to the generation of indirect jobs throughout the production chain.
