Majorfax secures first US order
Walsall manufacturer Majorfax is gearing up for further international growth after securing its first US order.
The company, a supplier of cast metal products, has signed a contract with AGCO to support its plans to produce high horsepower tractors aimed specifically at the US agricultural sector.
John Hughes, senior sales manager at Majorfax, said: "We are delighted to secure this contract as Majorfax was founded on work for the agricultural market so we’re particularly proud that our first contract to supply castings to America should be in this sector."
Majorfax will supply parts to AGCO's manufacturing facility in Minnesota that will be used to build the Massey Ferguson 8600 Series of tractors and the Challenger MT600C Series.
Steve Cooper, managing director at Majorfax, added: "Historically, we supplied machined and painted castings into AGCO's manufacturing plant in the UK; with manufacturing moving to Europe and the US we have been able to evolve our supply solution skills to meet the demands of supplying quality castings to global locations."
