Congressman Don Manzullo, R-16th, is urging companies to attend a March 7 meeting with international railcar manufacturer Nippon Sharyo USA.
The meeting, co-hosted by Manzullo, will take place from 10 a.m. to noon Monday, March 7 at Northern Illinois University's Rockford Education Center, located at 8500 E. State Street, Rockford (two-third of a mile east of I-90)
Nippon Sharyo is establishing a $35-40 million railcar production facility in the city of Rochelle, IL and will be increasing its “local content” from the region. The free event is a great opportunity to learn how to be a supplier to this major passenger railcar manufacturer.
The program will focus on four elements: a general introduction of Nippon Sharyo, plans for the Rochelle Production Facility, opportunities for plant equipment and services, and opportunities for material/parts supply for rail vehicles.
Those who plan to attend must RSVP to Bryan Davis at Congressman Manzullo’s office at bryan.davis@mail.house.gov by Friday, March 4. If you have any questions, please call (815) 394-1231.
