REMIS’ New Door Increasing Demand, Creating Jobs
ELKHART, Ind., July 27, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — REMIS AMERICA, the maker of energy
efficient doors and covers, has expanded its American production, creating jobs
and standing out in a tough economy.
Driven by increased demand for its energy saving solutions and several
commitments from major North American grocery retailers that extend into 2012,
Indiana production of REMIS doors will now include the RemiSafe T line. REMIS
has hired 25 employees year to date and that total includes engineers,
production employees, installation technicians and support staff with plans to
add 15 more new employees by the end of 2011.
Safe T doors were launched in late 2010 by REMIS GmbH in Cologne, Germany. At
EuroShop in February 2011 which took place in Dusseldorf, Germany, the Safe T
doors were on display and North American retailers that came to the REMIS booth
demanded we bring those doors to the states, explains Matt Pletcher REMIS
AMERICA managing director. “It was necessary to move our most popular product
lines to our Elkhart facility to give our customers the best possible
experience. Not only does it allow us to have more control and better timing to
satisfy our grocery retailer requirements, but also it lets us invest in our
local workforce. The Elkhart area was hit hard by the recession and we at REMIS
AMERICA are proud of doing our part to bring it out of the recession.”
Since the company’s inception in 2008, REMIS has brought over 45 jobs to the
Elkhart area. “We remain dedicated to the Elkhart county workforce,” says REMIS
CEO Jim Schwartz. “Our company is a local family business and we understand all
the resources Indiana has to offer. As our business expands, we will no doubt
continue to look toward the local workforce and Indiana suppliers to support our
growth.”
