COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO, CA, -- Trident Case, based in
Ontario in the County of San Bernardino, has announced plans to move more of
its manufacturing to the U.S. from China. The firm acquired a
42,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Rancho Cucamonga to
facilitate the expansion.
According to Lip Yow, president and founder, Trident
Case, the mobile device case manufacturer started operations in 2010 in a
2,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Chino.
The firm has now grown to more than 111,000-square feet
including its new 42,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Rancho Cucamonga
and a 70,000-square-foot corporate office in Ontario.
The Rancho Cucamonga
facility is now running at 25 percent capacity, with a target of being at full
capacity by the end of summer 2014, adding 75 new jobs by the end of the year.

The growth is a result of the company’s goal of rapidly moving to onshore 50 to
75 percent of its manufacturing business from China to inland Southern
California.
“Trident Case is a perfect example of how successful an
innovative manufacturing company can be in the County of San Bernardino,” said
Kelly Reenders, economic development administrator, County of San Bernardino.
“While the company benefits from our large workforce and
strategic location, our County and City representatives and associated team
members have been able to provide significant assistance and resources to help
Trident Case to grow and thrive – and more importantly hire more employees to
further expand their market share.”
