“More than 10,000 people are employed in Honda’s supply chain in Swindon, 65% of whom are of Indian-origin,” a Honda general associate and a Goan, told TOI. It pays well and people’s lifestyle depend on it.”President, Goan Swindon Association, Nelson Carvalho said, “This is going to have a devastating effect on Goans in Swindon because so many of them work for Honda and its supply chain. If Honda invests more money into the plant, it could be a problem if they face tariffs after Brexit. Whilst the majority are Goan, they include PIOs from all over India including Punjab and Gujarat.Many thousand more PIOs, mainly Goans, work in the Honda supply chain. This will have a huge impact on our household income,” said a Goan, who has been employed as a Honda associate..
