For over 30 years, Made to Measure has been conducting operations from its Chicago-area headquarters. According to the company, this second location will offer a suite of services and local presence for its growing base of clients on the West Coast and in the western states.

“With many manufacturing companies located in Orange County and California representing over 14% of the total U.S. economy, it is a natural next step for our organization,” says Sven Bley, president and CEO of Made to Measure. “A local presence will enable us to provide our same level of outstanding service closer to our customer base.”

“I am very excited to take on this new role. As a mid-size company ourselves, we understand the importance of ensuring that small and mid-size customers receive the same responsive support as larger businesses,” Bley says. “This is our next big step in increasing our local presence on the West Coast. We look forward to growing alongside the ever-expanding manufacturing industry in California.”
