Blink Charging announced it will transition to a contract manufacturing model for its electric vehicle charging hardware as part of its BlinkForward strategy, aiming to reduce costs, enhance scalability, and accelerate innovation.
The move allows Blink to leverage the expertise of established manufacturing partners while retaining in-house control over product design, software integration, and quality assurance. The company said the shift is expected to lower overhead and speed up deployment of charging solutions as demand for EV infrastructure grows.
“This move sharpens our focus and scales our impact,” said Mike Battaglia, President and CEO of Blink Charging. “By collaborating with world-class manufacturers, we aim to increase efficiencies and flexibility while retaining full control of our technology. It’s a strategic shift that lets us grow our network footprint and deliver better experiences, faster.”
Blink plans to work with multiple contract manufacturers across the United States and India, ensuring diversified sourcing and consistent quality standards.
