About K&S Wiring Systems
In June 1996, K & S Wiring Systems, Inc. was formed to produce and distribute electrical wiring harnesses for
sale to the Nissan Corporation.
K & S Wiring Systems, Inc. began as a joint venture between five Japanese companies: the Calsonic Kansei
Corporation, the Sumitomo Corporation, Sumitomo Wiring Systems, Ltd., Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd.
These companies already produced various automobile components for Nissan, Honda, Toyota, and other
manufacturers. The purpose of this joint venture was to combine the vast resources available from these
companies and make the electrical wiring harnesses for Nissan in the USA, Mexico, and Canadian markets.
In July 2002, the joint venture ceased with the purchase of the Calsonic Kansei stock by the Sumitomo
Electric Group. The current shareholders are: Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd, Sumitomo Wiring Systems,
Ltd., SWS America, Sumitomo Corporation, and Sumitomo Corporation de Mexico.
K & S Wiring Systems, Inc. has a wholly owned subsidiary, Sistemas De Arneses K & S Mexicana, SA, DE CV
located in Mexico. The facility in Aguascalientes is the main manufacturing facility and is the main producer
of the wiring harnesses. There are also several satellite manufacturing plants in Mexico. We have also partnered
with two Sumitomo sister companies to have harnesses supplied from the Philippines and Brazil. After the
completion of the finished product, shipping of the harnesses for the USA and Canadian markets is made to our
customers. Sales of the company are made to support the Nissan plants for production of the various models.
K&S USA main location is in LaVergne, TN. The 120,000 square foot facility warehouses and distributes the
harnesses supplied from Mexico, Philippines and Brazil to support Nissan operations in Smyrna, TN. In April
2003, K & S Wiring Systems, Inc. began quality and logistic support to Nissan and Visteon operations in Canton,
Mississippi. |
