CLARK FREEPORT — An automotive parts manufacturing firm is infusing P300-million for its expansion project here.
According to the Clark Development Corporation (CDC), Clark locator HMWS Inc. which specializes in automotive electrical systems and industrial equipment, will expand its operations and generate at least 200 new jobs.
The company formalized its expansion agreement with the CDC during a signing of the lease agreement held at the Clark Visitors Center on 8 May.
A CDC official said that as Clark continues to grow as an industrial hub, there is a need to create an environment that supports both business and workers.
“As the estate manager, CDC must help provide the facilities and environment that foster real work-life balance. The best way to maintain industrial peace is by reaching out to workers and ensuring they have the necessary resources,” she said.
Meanwhile, HMWS Inc. president and chairman of the board Kevin John Woodbine emphasized that the expansion builds on more than a decade of collaboration within Clark.
“This is a continuation of what I would describe as a successful partnership between our vision and the remarkable work ethic of the Filipino people,” Woodbine said.
He also outlined plans for new amenities designed to support employee well-being.
“We are introducing sports facilities, gym facilities, and health facilities for our staff. That’s something we’re very proud of,” he added.
Woodbine noted the evolving business climate and CDC’s role in supporting locators’ success.
“In the past few years, it has been refreshing to see a CDC team that is proactive, innovative, visionary and approachable,” he said.
“Speaking as one of CDC’s locators, the difference has been noticeable and impressive. Congratulations to the entire CDC team,” he added.
Aside from automotive electrical systems, HMWS Inc. also engineers and fabricates equipment for the mining, agriculture and marine industries.
