Volvo Construction Equipment is making a major move to expand its global footprint for crawler excavators. With a total investment of 2,500 million SEK, the company is ramping up production across three strategic sites—South Korea, Sweden, and North America. This effort is designed to support growing customer demand and prepare for a future focused on sustainable construction solutions.
At the heart of this expansion is Volvo CE’s Changwon factory in South Korea, which will receive the largest share of investment. This facility already plays a critical role in the company’s global supply chain, and the upgrade aims to boost its manufacturing strength, product development, and supply chain capabilities. The goal is to meet international volume needs while improving speed, cost-efficiency, and reliability.
In Sweden, Volvo CE is planning to enhance production capacity for the European market. The exact scope and timeline for this project will be finalized in 2025. Meanwhile, in North America, the company will install a new excavator assembly line at its Shippensburg facility. This addition will bring manufacturing closer to key U.S. customers, reducing lead times and improving service levels.
This global expansion isn’t just about building more machines. It’s about building them smarter and faster. By positioning production closer to demand centers, Volvo CE will reduce transport distances, shorten delivery times, and lower emissions. It’s also a smart hedge against global supply chain disruptions, offering more control and flexibility in today’s unpredictable market.
For customers, the benefits are clear—faster access to equipment, more customized configurations, and improved support. For regional dealers and suppliers, the expansion opens doors to stronger partnerships and ongoing innovation.
