It is not surprising to see new facilities, plants, and heavy equipment firms expanding across the region. The expansion of facilities and maximization of production are crucial requirements that need to be fulfilled adequately. This is essential because the North American region will witness substantial growth in development projects. It is an important step toward expanding their North American operations. Develon and HD Hyundai recently opened a new customization plant in Brunswick, Georgia.
This marks a major milestone for the company and its long-term partner, Wallenius Wilhelmsen, whose collaboration has spanned over two decades. The new facility in Georgia will allow Develon to better serve its customers by speeding up delivery times and enhancing the quality of its machinery, thanks to improved customization processes.
A strong partnership
This is not the first customization center in Develon’s journey. It began with the opening of its first North American Customization Center in July 2019. This first facility was established in collaboration with Wallenius Wilhelmsen, a global logistics company that has been a reliable partner to Develon and HD Hyundai for 24 years. The success of the partnership and growing demand for Develon’s machines necessitated the move to a larger, more advanced facility.
“We’re proud of the 24-year partnership we’ve built with Wallenius Wilhelmsen,” said Chris Jeong, President and CEO of Develon. “The relocation to a larger facility in Brunswick reflects the growth we’ve experienced and our ongoing commitment to providing top-tier service to our customers.”
Faster delivery and improved quality
Not only is the new facility bigger, but it also has the objective to be more effective and of higher quality. Develon can speed up the process of bringing new equipment to contractors and customers by using the Brunswick plant, which specializes in machine assembly and final customization. Customers will benefit from reduced lead times because of this efficient operation, which maintains the company’s high standards of quality. Now it is necessary to complete the construction project within the provided time frame and also with improved quality.
“Our new customization plant in Brunswick will allow us to expedite our services for our dealers and our customers,” explained Jeong. The new facility has a larger space than the previous customization plant, with dedicated sections for our equipment, and will better meet the optional needs of our dealers and our customers with the formation of final assembly options.

This level of customization is increasingly important in today’s fast-paced business environment, where companies are always looking for ways to maximize efficiency and minimize downtime. By expanding its customization capabilities, Develon aims to meet these demands head-on, delivering machines that are ready to perform shortly after the time they arrive on site.
