Sennheiser has opened the company's new manufacturing facility in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It is Sennheiser's first manufacturing facility outside of Europe.
It measures 45,000 square feet, of which 15,000 square feet is for production with an additional 10,000 square feet reserved for future expansion.
Bill Jenner, vice president and general manager of Sennheiser New Mexico, said. "Right now we're making printed circuit boards and in a few weeks we'll begin assembling both the new RS99 wireless headphone series and the recently introduced Digital 1000 microphones."
The plant currently employs 40 people, but that number will grow to 150 to 200 as new products are added to the facilities roster.
