Cj Industries Case Study
CJ Industries Case Study CJ Industries has just been awarded a 5-year contract with Great Lakes Pleasure Boats, a luxury and is now trying to decide how to meet the demand of their new client. CJ Industries manufactures all part in-house, except bilge pumps. For years, CJ Industries has been using Heavey Pumps to meet their demand for bilge pumps.
