BRUSSELS: A global technology and service provider for commercial vehicles is building its North American headquarters in Auburn Hills.
Belgium-based is building a 102,000-square-foot facility with plans to add 87 new jobs in the next three years, the company announced. The facility would house about 200 employees in total.
“WABCO’s expansion in Michigan rather than another state means good jobs for Michigan residents and underscores the strength of the talent in the state’s mobility and technology sectors,” said Jeff Mason, CEO of Michigan Economic Development Corporation.
The facility is expected to open later this year at 1220 Pacific Dr.
WABCO is planning to consolidate its Troy operations and a portion of its Rochester Hills facility to the Auburn Hills location, investing more than $19.7 million in the development.
Auburn Hills is offering a 50 percent property tax abatement in support of the project.
In addition to two floors of office space, the building will feature a Customer Experience Center, a vehicle test lab, training center and other amenities.
