The Hisense factory in Atlantis has produced its millionth television and millionth fridge. 

Mayor Patricia de Lille congratulated the factory on this achievement on Sunday. It has been four years since Hisense opened its factory on the West Coast. It currently employs about 500 full-time employees. Hisense uses this factory as their base for operations into the rest of Africa. The factory exports to 13 African countries.

The City government was intricately involved in helping to facilitate the investment by Hisense more than four years ago, De Lille said, and stands ready to facilitate further investments.
