Intermodal chassis manufacturer CIMC is bringing full manufacturing to the U.S. to meet the needs of the domestic intermodal market.
Coinciding with a name change to CIE Manufacturing, the company is in the process of creating full manufacturing capabilities in both of its facilities – in South Gate, California, and Emporia, Virginia. CIE plans to hire an additional 275 people in the U.S. with this move, and eventually plans to add a facility in the middle of the country with access to the Mississippi River for easy barge transport.
