The unique manufacturing collective, formed of the Midlands Assembly Network – a group of eight subcontract manufacturers and a specialist design consultancy – have joined up with KimberMills International, in a bid to seize new opportunities in the rail and petrochemical sectors. Larry Joyce, chair of MAN, hopes that by joining up this will bring benefits to both firms, including significant savings and securing new orders as a result of increased presence in their desired markets.
