Chenelec Company was founded in 1970 as a custom design and manufacturing facility of high voltage capacitors. In 1980 the wound magnetics operation was begun and both entities evolved together into the current business as Electron Coil Inc. The company is known for having established a market niche in custom work in the commercial, medical, utility, military and aerospace industries.

The company remains focused on the continued design of new products and the development of expanded markets. The timely response to increased demand, while still maintaining established product lines, has enabled the business to grow and prosper.

Electron Coil Inc’s mission is to assure the provision of a quality product at a competitive price. We are proud of the company we’ve built and our accomplishments. We will strive to meet our mission and continually look for new ways to make improvements.

In 1968, Wesson Fi****ms Co., Inc., was founded by Daniel B. Wesson. His focus was on creating the absolute best quality and top performing products on the market. He valued quality so much that he insisted on keeping his product line small in an effort to ensure that every single gun he produced was of the highest caliber possible. He carried on with his mission until 1996, when the company changed hands and was acquired by Daniel Serva, who brought Wesson Fi****ms from Massachusetts to Norwich, NY. Serva was determined to combine the Wesson high quality standards with modern manufacturing techniques, and successfully began a small production line in 2000.

In early 2005, CZ-USA acquired Dan Wesson Fi****ms and is now managing it as a part of the CZ corporate group. For the first time in the history of Dan Wesson Fi****ms, all the key business components to take the company forward, existed. With the union with CZ, Dan Wesson Fi****ms is now positioned with the resources and personnel to make it a top manufacturer in the global fi****ms market.

Today, the Norwich plant continues to manufacture Dan Wesson 1911’s along with revolver parts and accessories.

Located on Route 206 in Greene, Cross Country began manufacturing flatbed utility trailers in 1981. The company originally manufactured small utility trailers that were sold to lawn and garden dealers, snowmobile dealers and motorcycle shops. We soon realized that there was a need to manufacture larger equipment trailers. Cross County now manufactures approximately 1000 trailers each year that range in size from a 4’ bed up to a 30 ft. bed, with a carrying capacity of up to 20 tons.
Cross Country manufactures many “standard” trailers, however, often times our standard unit needs to be customized to better suit the customer’s needs. Not only are our trailers of the highest standards in the industry, but they are built exactly to the specifications required by each customer. Trailers manufactured by Cross Country are sold through a network of dealers throughout the northeastern United States.

Chenango Valley Technologies (CVT) is a full-service plastic injection molding company that was founded in 1972 by Lloyd Baker. Although the company started out as Chenango Tool, it eventually transformed when the company purchased Madison Plastics of Verona, NY in 1997. The merging of these two companies led to the birth of Chenango Valley Technologies as we know it today.

The work at CVT revolves around designing and creating injection molds and molded products. Additionally, they also offer a product line that consists of battery boxes and battery trays that are sold to the marine, RV, and automotive industries. Although their customer base is quite vast, their largest customers of injection moldings are those within the lawn and garden industries and the need for their products is largely growing within the medical industry.

Chenango Valley Technologies will be celebrating 50 years in business in 2022. Over the years the company has grown exponentially, leading to the need to relocate three times and is now the proud employer of 50 individuals, having started with only one single employee.

They have made several machine and technology upgrades throughout the years to keep up with the ever-changing industry requirements and to ensure the highest quality of products.
