Dell Opens Exemplary Plant in Hortolandia

Dell Brazil announced it would expand in Brazil, by building a new plant in Hortolandia, state of São Paulo, and revamping the company’s Contact Center and Software Development Center, both in Rio Grande do Sul. Today, just one year later, the company is proud to officially open the new plant.

Until now centralized in the city of Eldorado do Sul (RS), Dell supplied markets in Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Colombia and South Africa. With the new factory, Dell will be nearer to its customers and in a location from where it is easier to export. “In Hortolandia, we are close to 70 percent of our customer base and to the largest cargo airport in Brazil (Viracopos). This will reduce shipping times and costs, and consequently improve customer experience, which is our final objective,” said Raymundo Peixoto, Country Manager, Dell Brazil. With the relocation, Dell has plans to extend its presence on the Brazilian business market (the company focus in Brazil) where it is the leading company. To that end it has the advantages of the new plant and a service portfólio that meets the specific needs of customers from small businesses to large corporations.

The Hortolandia plant features leading-edge technology and complies with the highest manufacturing and distribution standards. Owing to this, it will serve as a pilot plant for other Dell factories around the world. “We are very pleased with our team. It is an exemplary plant and it reflects the excellent work that Brazil has performed so far,” remarked Peixoto.
