Case IH

Cash IH is hiring additional personnel

In early 2000, the corporate executives for one of Grand Island's major employers, Case IH (formerly New Holland (CNH)), undertook an evaluation, targeting 20% of the company's plants worldwide for sale, consolidation and closure.   At the time there was much discussion and concern that the Grand Island plant would be closed and operations moved.

June 8, 2000 was a red-letter day for the employees of Case IH, and City/Community Leaders as Case IH announced that the company planned to consulidate production of combines at the Grand Island plant, resulting in the retention of over 600 jobs.  Case IH is an excellent corporate citizen.  We are pleased that Case IH chose to invest in our community and are estatic that they currently have 844+ well-paying jobs.

Our participation in the financial incentive package, while just a small component, demonstrates our support and committment to Case IH, but more importantly, to the employees, supporting companies/vendors, and the community at large.  We believe the growth of Case IH will continue to stimulate economic development, increase the local tax basse and promote the creation of well paying jobs.
