Morgan Truck Body's Fleet, Moosup Pond Road, Plainfield, CT |
The new facility is Morgan’s 13th in the US and
Canada but their first in New England. The Plainfield site was
formerly a manufacturing plant for American Standard before turning mostly
dormant.
Extensive renovations and site improvements over the past year
will allow Morgan to occupy 175,000 square feet and support 140 manufacturing
jobs.
Elected officials
and local business leaders hailed Morgan’s selection of Plainfield for their
new facility and pledged to support the company’s growth through helping to
fill open positions and promote the business throughout the region.

“Morgan has
demonstrated a confidence in Eastern Connecticut that will open the door to
further economic growth and investment in the region,” said Adam
Winstanley, Principal at Winstanley Enterprises, LLC.
“Companies looking to
expand or grow their manufacturing, shipping or warehouse operations should
seriously consider this region’s rail and interstate access, central location
between key metro-areas and markets and a well-trained and able workforce that
has a long history of manufacturing, production and innovation.”
