Plano Mayor John B. Muns and City Manager Mark Israelson recently visited Seoul, South Korea, as part of a visit to SK Signet, an EV charging solutions company with a production facility in Plano.
The delegation toured the facilities and discussed future collaboration, according to a news release.
“Plano serves as a critical North American hub with a business-friendly environment, strong talent, and strategic positioning, providing a solid foundation for building a stable supply chain and expanding our business,” SK Signet CEO Hyung-Ki Cho said. “Through close collaboration with Plano, we will continue to contribute to the expansion of EV charging infrastructure in North America while fostering shared growth with the local community and industry ecosystem.”
According to SK Signet, the company has utilized the Plano production facility to supply more than 3,000 chargers across the U.S. market.
“It is very meaningful to see SK Signet’s advanced research facilities and outstanding technological capabilities firsthand. The company’s production base in Plano plays a pivotal role in the local economy and also in advancing EV infrastructure across the United States,” Mayor Muns said. “We will continue to actively support the company at the city level and work closely with state and federal governments to ensure its continued growth.”
