Custom Products Set to Expand Facility, Add Jobs

Custom Products of Litchfield Inc., a maker of cabs and operator protective enclosures for industrial vehicles in the construction, forestry, turf care and other sectors, plans to invest more than $2 million and add 31 jobs in a manufacturing expansion.

The company said it will add 20,000 square feet to its Litchfield MN, facility so it can manufacture cabs using expanded processes for two new major customers.

Once Custom Products completes the project and adds the new jobs, The Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development will contribute $231,000 from the state’s Job Creation Fund.

The company began as a sheet metal shop in 1959 and, in 1962, began making cabs for farm tractors under the Cozy Cab brand.
