Founded in Quebec in 2009 as AddÉnergie, Flo is now a provider of smart charging solutions for electric vehicles in Canada and says it is expanding internationally.
"There is no better location for Flo to plant roots in the US than Michigan – the birthplace of the American auto industry," said Louis Tremblay, Flo president and CEO. "Our new facility will establish Flo's American operational foothold, helping us to create jobs, strengthen charging infrastructure, and meet the charging needs of EV drivers nationwide.”
The facility is is Auburn Hills facility and Flo says it puts the company at the centre of the United States' electric transition, as American car manufacturers continue to prioritise and ramp up EV production in Detroit.
"Located mere miles from the heart of the US auto industry, the facility's state-of-the-art testing lab will position Flo to build chargers designed for compatibility with new EVs coming off nearby production lines," Flo said in a statement.
The facility is slated to start production later this year and will continue scaling up its workforce and production.
