Dear Fergus colleagues,
Happy Birthday Fergus
It is my pleasure to celebrate with you your 50th anniversary!
Congratulations on 50 years of strong focus on people, processes and process controls, allowing you to adapt to changing market conditions and move swiftly from automotive to residential, commercial and industrial markets and customers.
Since 1966 Fergus has built a long lasting reputation of know-how and excellence in cable making. The Plant has been upgraded several times, mainly in 1996 and 2005, and in 2015 we launched a complete modernization and capacity improvement which will make Fergus a leading cable producer for many more years to come.
Wish you many more to come! Kind regards, Steve Vermeulen, Executive VP, NA
I wish you all a very safe and very happy celebration.
On behalf of the 220 current employees of Nexans, Fergus I want to invite you to our 50th Anniversary Open House on Saturday, June 11th. In 1966 we started as Fergus Cables to manufacture automobile wire and hired the ďŹ rst of hundreds of people from the local area who have worked with us over the last 50 years. There’s a good chance you know someone who works with us today or has in the past. One of the main reasons Nexans located in Fergus, is the people and the strong community. People have always been a strength in our plant. Manufacturing is very competitive and our employees have adapted to changing business and customer demands. The Fergus facility has been rewarded with regular investments to become a world class operation. Last year we expanded again, investing $15 million to add a 125,000 square foot logistics facility and upgrading some of our equipment. These changes will ensure continued success and good local jobs for years to come. Our doors are open June 11th from 10am to 2pm so you can take a tour through the plant and the new warehouse to learn a bit more about what we do.

I hope to see you on the 11th! Cameron Matthew, Plant Manager
