Jabil is an US company that designs and produces electronic components. In 2017, it decided to transfer some of its production from China to Poland. More specifically, manufacturing activities were moved to the plant of Kwidzyn, located in the Pomerania region which is recognized as one of the most important Polish industrial cluster for the electronic industry (20.000 people are working there). Before the relocation, over 3 thousand people already worked in the Jabil plant, and further six hundred ones will be enrolled. New jobs will manage the relocated activities and the increasing demand deriving from new customers.
