Stadco, a supplier of body-in-white pressings and assemblies, has won its first volume production contract from Toyota’s UK manufacturing arm.
The company presses two major parts for the Corolla at its Shrewsbury plant in the UK and supply them directly to the automaker’s Burnaston plant in Derbyshire.
Production of the two parts, the left and right panel quarter wheelhouse, started in early February. Parts are transported to Burnaston four times daily, five days a week.
