New Sequencing Plant Opened in Detroit

Yesterday, Crown Enterprises, Inc., and TDS/US., Inc., opened a new sequencing plant in Detroit.

The new 365,000-square foot facility - which was developed and is owned by Warren-based Crown Enterprises - is located across the street from Detroit-based Chrysler Jefferson North plant.

Operated by TDS/US, the new plant will employ 210 workers, who will assist in the production of 1100 Jeep Cherokees per day.

DaimlerChrysler's Jefferson North Assembly Plant was built in 1991 and produced the first Grand Cherokee in 1992. The plant currently employs more than 2,400 people.
