Reaching a New Orbis in Mexico

摘要

Orbis is a familiar name to many in the logistics and supply chain sector. The subsidiary of Oconomowoc, Wis.-based Menasha Corporation manufactures a variety of plastic totes, containers, pallets, and customized materials handling equipment for industrial, food and beverage, and distribution companies. Orbis recently opened a new plastic packaging production facility in Silao, Mexico, its first such manufacturing plant in Latin America. A need to better serve customers in that market, as well as free up capacity for growth in the United States, predicated the move. In the past, the company shipped product to Mexico from facilities in Kansas, Ohio, and Kentucky.
