MIW North
As we approach the third month of operation for MIW North, the shop floors are filled with materials, generating a needed work space for some of our smaller projects. In the past we elected to subcontract out some fabrication pieces due to spacing and man hours, now with the purchase of the 25,000 square foot facility in Cheboygan, MI and the addition of six new skilled employees we have been able to utilize our own resources and help contribute to the local economy. With the development of MIW North, Moran Iron Works can provide more inhouse fabrication to our customers, giving them the peace of mind that all materials are meeting the same high standard of quality that they have come to expect from Moran Iron Works.
