Yaskawa Electric, one of the world's leading robot producers, has decided to open a new production facility in Slovenia. Yaskawa plans to invest around 25 million euros in the plant which will start to operate in 2018, 25 percent of the investment being provided by the Slovenian government as financial assistance. The Japanese manufacturer of automation components, industrial robots, and components for the production of alternative energy, already operates a plant in Ribnica, a small town in southern Slovenia. The Japanese company with annual sales of over 3 billion euros decided to increase its European production capacity because of the increased demand for robots in Europe and the EMEA region.
