"Given the success the company has had building out our distribution and dealer network we needed a manufacturing partner with the ability to produce around the world, with an engineering and design core competency, and a global supply chain and logistics network," commented Justin Holland, Eguana CEO. "Jabil has over 100 manufacturing sites and more than 200,000 employees, providing Eguana the scalability and reliability required to service our customer base and growing demand."
