The company has invested $44 million in a new plant which is expected to be at full capacity by March 2007. The president of Fuji Photo, Yoji Sekihara, boasts that the new facility will have a yearly output of 5.5 million digital cameras per year.
This is just another feather in China’s cap of many from Fuji who has invested over $300 million dollars in China since 2004 and already employees 1,600 employees in Suzhou. Suzhou, perhaps best known for its landscaped gardens and Venetian-like canal system, is approximately 50 miles east of Shanghai.
