BURGOS, Spain — Bridgestone Corp. has opened a logistics center in Burgos to support the growth and development of its factories in Spain.
Representing an investment of nearly $43 million, the "Tizona" unit is one of Bridgestone's "most significant logistics centers in Europe," the company said a March 20 announcement.
The new facility supports Bridgestone's recently announced plans to invest up to $224 million in Burgos by 2030 to enhance efficiency, sustainability and product-mix at the site.
Tizona, Bridgestone said, will play "a critical role" in the transformation of the Burgos facilities by increasing stock capacities for the more than 11 million tires manufactured annually at the plant.
