manufacturing plant sites are strategically located throughout
North America to best serve our customers. Having multiple plant
sites ensures timely and cost effective delivery of wheels, while
giving our customers the security of knowing that Griffin has
the flexibility to deliver even during plant down times.
Inventory - Griffin maintains
an inventory of the most common wheel types based on a forecasted
production plan rather than an order based process. This allows
our customers the ability
to reduce inventory-carrying
costs and creates the shortest
possible order lead times
in the industry.
