TAINAN (TVBS News) — Sampo Corporation (聲寶集團) launched its new plant in Tainan's Annan District (安南區) on Monday (Nov. 11), promising to create 400 jobs. The facility will produce intelligent air conditioning units and energy-efficient refrigerators, marking a significant regional expansion.
Tainan Mayor Huang Wei-che (黃偉哲) praised the development during the inauguration ceremony, noting the recent trend of technological advancement moving southward in Taiwan. He expressed gratitude for Sampo's choice of Tainan, emphasizing the company's role in both traditional industries and 3C home appliance manufacturing.
The mayor stated that if Sampo had future expansion goals, Tainan would be ready to provide the best environment. Huang also anticipates that Sampo's vertical and horizontal integration could attract related satellite factories and cloud-based innovative technology industries to Tainan.
Tainan's Economic Development Bureau (台南市政府經濟發展局) supports this vision by offering a one-stop service window to enhance horizontal coordination and streamline operations. The bureau aims to expedite review processes and improve administrative efficiency, assisting businesses in resolving investment and plant establishment issues.
