In 1987, CBI expanded its sales area from 150-mile radius to an area that includes Arkansas, Colorado, Kansas, Louisiana, Missouri, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and all of Texas. CBI owns a fleet of trucks to serve our regional market. Currently, the plant is a 96,000 square foot, state of the art facility that houses computerized machinery, conveyors, and a bar code tracking system. The plant is capable of producing 3,000 pieces per day on two 10-hour shifts. Recognizing the significance transportation plays in limiting or shaping the avenues of growth, Corsicana began developing their own long haul trucking operation.
Future growth includes expansion within our current areas of service, as well as to the West Coast.
