Toyota Auto Body California, Inc., (TABC), Toyota’s first manufacturing investment in the U.S., today celebrated its 40th anniversary with team members, government and community officials, suppliers and executives.
TABC, originally known as Atlas Fabricators, contracted with Toyota
in 1972 to produce truck beds for vehicles destined for the U.S. Two
years later, Toyota purchased the operations and renamed it TABC,
becoming the first manufacturing investment in the U.S. for Toyota.
Today, TABC employs 470 and its investment tops $270 million. It
produces stamped and welded parts, steering columns and catalytic
converters for a number of Toyota’s vehicle assembly plants in North
America and Japan and tests, inspects and repackages end-of-life hybrid
vehicle batteries.
