Advanced Manufacturing
Support from local community colleges over the last decade has significantly aided transportation product manufacturers in the region. Among some of the largest manufacturers is Keihin, a first tier manufacturer of motor vehicle parts and systems. The recent announcement of Triangle Tire, a tire manufacturer from China, has bolstered this cluster. Triangle will build its first ever US manufacturing facility at the Kingsboro Mega Site.
