EDC Client Clickstop Expands to Add Sewing and Assembly of Products at its Urbana Headquarters

Urbana, IA (PRWEB) April 17, 2013–EDC client Clickstop, an e-commerce business and parent company of USCargoControl.com, has expanded its business capabilities by adding 15 jobs and equipment to launch a new team dedicated to the sewing and assembly of tie-down related products on site.

Clickstop was founded in 2005 when CEO Tim Guenther launched the USCargoControl.com website, selling a line of ratchet straps for the cargo control industry. Over the next eight years, the business added thousands of more items to the website, but tie down straps have remained a leading category for the brand.

In 2012, Guenther saw an opportunity to build assemblies like ratchet straps and cam straps for the US Cargo Control brand rather than outsourcing the products from China. By the end of the year, a new warehouse addition was completed and sewing machines and other equipment were purchased. The new department has been operating since February of this year and is scaling to take on a large amount of additional volume.

Guenther says this expansion has been a methodical one to ensure product and safety standards were met each step of the way. He also says the benefits have been worth the wait. Click here for full press release issued by Clickstop.
