WARSAW — Medtronic has announced plans to remain in Warsaw, after a previously announced plan to close the facility.

In 2021, Medtronic announced the Warsaw facility would close by 2024. This would have been a major loss of a large orthopedic company and employer in Warsaw.

After further evaluation, Medtronic announced the decision to keep the Warsaw facility open.

“Medtronic continually evaluates its operations and aligns our resources with our highest strategic priorities,” said Medtronic’s Senior Director of Public Relations and Issues Management Erika Winkels. “We previously announced plans to close the Warsaw, Ind., facility, but after careful analysis and consideration, we are working with our partners, Autocam Medical, to remain at our Warsaw facility for the foreseeable future.”
