Furniture maker Palliser says it’s adding a new 12,000-square-metre building in Winnipeg
Canadian furniture maker Palliser is expanding its North American operations as new products coupled with soaring tariffs on imports from Vietnam and China increase demand for the company’s furnishings.
Palliser says it’s also increasing production capacity in Mexico by expanding its manufacturing facilities and adding new shifts, which will create another 460 positions. Peter Tielmann, Palliser president and CEO, says the company’s investment in new manufacturing facilities and expanded work force reflects its commitment to the North American market.
In September, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal said the dumping and subsidizing of certain upholstered furniture originating in or exported from China and Vietnam had “caused injury to the domestic industry.”
