With Harley Davidson India celebrating its maiden Indian Market invasion
anniversary in recent past, there is buzz in Indian Market weather the US based
bike manufacturer will start its second outside assembly facility outside the US
after Japan, so that we can have the Harleys completely knocked down (CKD)
position here.
The good part of having an assembling unit in India is that they review their supply
& operations plan for Asian, Middle East and European markets where H-D has a
huge potential growth. In this part of the world, Japan automatically being the
largest in terms of volumes, H-D also has a strong presence in China, Taiwan &
Australia. Reportedly, sales have been satisfactory at both lower as well as higher
end which would mean that H-D buyers may attract a disappointment in terms of
discount or price correction.
