The new plant, located on a 48-acre site within the Mazda Toyota Manufacturing USA (MTMUSA) campus, produces structural body stamping and assemblies, as well as chassis parts for MTMUSA. Construction involved moving 110,0003 yards of dirt, pouring 22,0003 yards of concrete, and erecting nearly 3,000 tons of steel.
This successful project followed Gray’s longstanding tradition of serving Japanese customers as they expand their operations to the U.S. through Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). To learn more about Gray’s business relationship with our Japanese partners, click here.
