This expansion allows SMG to broaden their manufacturing capabilities with a continued investment in the newest technology across the machining, sewing, and assembly divisions.
Suburban Manufacturing’s CEO, Chase Marshall, shared, “We’re focusing on automation and vertical integration to support the domestic and international growth for Tsunami, Python, and LubeMinder products.”
The expansion is scheduled to be completed spring 2023 and will provide the necessary space to grow the custom sewing, assembly, and machining departments. A section of the new space will also be allocated for inventory to stay consistent with their philosophy of reduced lead times.
“Upon completion, we’ll also be taking advantage of the opportunity to improve our stock mix to support our large OEM customers,” Marshall stated.
