The company is headquartered in Santiago de Querétaro, Mexico and has its US operations based in Novi, Michigan. This location assembles the TR-9080 Dual Clutch Transmission as well as housing sales, marketing and engineering (and was, until 2017, based in Plymouth, Michigan). Production facilities are also located in Pedro Escobedo and Santiago de Querétaro, in Mexico, and Zedelgem (Bruges area) in Belgium. Research and Development is based in the Belgium location and engineering is also located in Queretaro. TREMEC is a wholly owned subsidiary of KUO Group, which is based in Mexico City.[1]
Some of the first TREMEC products were originally designed by Borg-Warner, including the widely used T-56.
TREMEC was founded on April 12, 1964. The genesis was to manufacture transmissions in Mexico for Ford, GM and Chrysler. At that time, the Mexican government enacted a protectionist policy that mandated all vehicles assembled in Mexico have engines and transmissions 100-percent manufactured in Mexico. A joint venture was formed which included one of Ford's large transmissions suppliers – Clark Transmissions – and two entrepreneurial companies based in Mexico. TREMEC's first transmissions would be produced later that same year.[2]
