Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer announced that Mopec will be relocating its California operations to Madison Heights, which will result in more than $1 million in capital investment and the creation of 47 new jobs.
“Whether in manufacturing or medical tech, Michigan entrepreneurs and innovators are inventing the future,” said Lt. Governor Garlin Gilchrist II. “Today’s announcement will grow our economy, create good-paying, high tech jobs of the future, and continue to cement Michigan’s reputation as the best place to have a new idea. Governor Whitmer and I will continue to Stand Tall so more individuals, families, and small business owners can ‘make it’ in Michigan.”
Mopec was founded in 1992 and headquartered in Madison Heights. The company has been developing, designing, manufacturing and distributing in the United States for thirty-three years. They operate and continue to modernize an advanced platform of equipment and supplies to optimize pathological workflows, specimen tracking and user safety delivery systems and solutions that facilitate safer examinations for their customers. Every hospital and laboratory in the United States have equipment from Mopec.
Mopec has made the decision to consolidate their manufacturing operation from California to Madison Heights. The investment in their facility there is expected to exceed $1 million and create at least 47 new jobs with starting wages of $24 per hour plus benefits, which is above the regional median wage.
