DT Swiss has confirmed that this strategic move will allow them to reduce transportation costs and manufacture closer to their final market. These new assembly facilities in Poland will complement the ones the company already has at its headquarters in Biel, Switzerland, and in Colorado, at its U.S. subsidiary.

A spokesperson for the company explained this important change as follows:

"The shortest physical distance between the new assembly site and the R&D team in Switzerland aims to streamline processes and accelerate decision-making, driving the development and implementation of innovative products."

"Shorter organizational distances and greater proximity to OEM and ASM customers, who are mainly based in Europe, are intended to reduce time to market and allow us to react more quickly to market changes."
