We want to maximise the growth opportunity for the brand globally, particularly in the Asian markets. "We are now preparing for Triumph’s next wave of strategic growth. "To facilitate the more efficient production of specialist prototype bikes and the continued manufacturing of high-end bespoke motorcycles such as the Triumph Factory Custom (TFC) bikes,” said Triumph. Triumph’s Hinckley factory will have a new bespoke assembly line. Triumph said they’re debating about 50 production role employees and their future roles in the company. Moving the main production outside the Hinckley factory will have a result regarding the number of employees remaining. Thus, we’re looking at the last Speed Triple and Tiger 1200 models produced in the UK. The British brand is making 65,000 units each year, thus around 60,000 bikes will be made in factories in Chonburi, Thailand. The motorcycles in Triumph’s model range still made in Great Britain will be TFC bikes and special projects. So, only 4,500 bikes per year will remain to be built at the Hinckley factory in the UK. Here are the details.Īccording to MCN, the main production of Triumph’s motorcycles is moving to Thailand. The motorcycles will be built in three Thailand factories with only high-end bespoke models remaining built in the UK. Triumph’s rearranging its production lines.
