Model Economic Township Ltd (MET City), a wholly owned subsidiary of Reliance Industries (RIL), is developing a “world class” greenfield smart city near Gurugram, Haryana.

MET City is a Japan Industrial Township (JIT) and houses four leading Japanese companies. Nihon Kohden, one of the four and a manufacturer of medical devices, recently did a ground-breaking ceremony on their plot at MET City, an RIL statement said.

This facility of Nihon Kohden will be their largest manufacturing facility in India, and it will further enhance the position of MET City as a leading location for setting up companies in Haryana and North India, it added.

Panasonic, Denso and T-Suzuki are the other Japanese companies in MET City.

On the occasion of the ground-breaking ceremony, S V Goyal, chief executive of MET City, said, “With 400-plus industrial customers, walk-to-work masterplan, and world-class infrastructure, MET City today is one of the fastest growing greenfield smart city in north India.

“Being a Japan Industrial Township, we are very happy to have more Japanese companies coming to us and selecting MET City as their partner in India. The plug-n-play infrastructure of MET City is an added advantage for any company coming to us for their requirement,” he added.
