JSW seeks Japanese & Korean investment for its 3,000-acre Salboni industrial park in Bengal.

The park offers plug-and-play infrastructure with logistic advantages.

It supports India’s manufacturing & trade diversification goals.

JSW Group is stepping up efforts to attract foreign investments in its Salboni industrial park in West Bengal by targeting Japanese and Korean manufacturing companies. With its expansive 3,000-acre facility, the group envisions transforming the region into a global manufacturing hub, offering plug-and-play infrastructure and logistic advantages.

JSW’s strategic pitch comes at a time when global supply chains are being diversified beyond China. The Salboni park is part of the group’s broader initiative to promote industrialization and generate employment in eastern India. The company is reportedly in talks with multiple firms across sectors like automotive components, electronics, and steel fabrication.

“We’re creating a business-friendly ecosystem with world-class infrastructure, power supply, and logistics access via the nearby ports and highways,” said a company source.

Salboni already hosts JSW Cement operations and is earmarked for further steel-based industrial developments. The push to invite Japanese and Korean companies is also aligned with India’s diplomatic and trade relations with these nations, enhancing the region’s attractiveness as a base for exports and domestic sales.
