AUMOVIO Completes Mechelen Location Sale
AUMOVIO completed the sale of its Mechelen location to the Dumarey Group on September 2, following the announcement made on April 20, 2026. Under the agreement, the Dumarey Group takes over the Mechelen plant and its approximately 300 employees. Customer relationships for existing products, however, remain with AUMOVIO. The transaction transfers ownership and operational responsibility for the site while allowing existing customer commitments to continue. The deal reflects AUMOVIO’s broader strategy to optimize its global manufacturing footprint while preserving continuity for products currently supported through the Mechelen operation.
Production Transition and Future Activities
Production of current components will continue for a defined transition period under a contract manufacturing arrangement. During this period, the Dumarey Group will build on the Mechelen site’s manufacturing expertise and progressively introduce new activities and products. In parallel, AUMOVIO will gradually transfer production to other locations within its network. This approach is intended to support an orderly transition while maintaining manufacturing continuity for existing components. The transaction therefore combines a phased production handover at Mechelen with a broader redistribution of manufacturing activities across AUMOVIO’s global network.
