Orange County Erectors, Inc. proudly announces the fabrication and erection of a new manufacturing and distribution facility for Nong Shim Company in Rancho Cucamonga, California.

 

The project consisting of manufacturing facility, distribution center and office building requires fabrication and erection of over 1,100 tons of structural and miscellaneous steel.

 

The groundbreaking ceremony for Nong Shim’s new facility took place in Rancho Cucamonga on April 6, 2004 and was attended by key California dignitaries as well as the top executives of Nong Shim Co., Ltd..

 

Ken Hantula, the Project Manager on this project, says, “This is one of those jobs where the schedule is crucial to the customer and a lot of steel has to be produced in a short amount of time to keep up with the field erection."

 

Joe Pennachio, the Field Supperintendent, is proud to share with us that, “Our field crew used a new type of crane hoisting on this project which we have never done before.”

 

“It was a huge success,” he smiles. “I was impressed. It helped to save our company a significant amount of money for rental equipment and put us two weeks ahead of schedule.”

 

Ken adds, “This project is a success for many reasons, but mainly because, from beginning to end, every member of our team communicated well and did their job.”

 

The nearly 270,000 square feet facility is scheduled to be completed in February 2005.

When finished, it will create a minimum of 300 new jobs in the area.

 

Mr. Edward Shin, President of Nong Shim America, Inc., declared: “This factory will become a flagship facility for a number of future food manufacturing and distribution ventures in North and South America in the years ahead.

 

The general contractor on this project is McClier Corporation located in Orange, California.
