MITER Brands Announces Strategic Consolidation of Manufacturing Operations in California
MITER Brands has announced its decision to close the Simi Valley manufacturing facility in early June as part of a strategic initiative aimed at optimizing operations and increasing efficiency. This move aligns with the company’s long-term vision of streamlining its manufacturing footprint while maintaining superior service and support for its valued dealer partners.
Commitment to Quality and Efficiency
MITER Brands has built a reputation for delivering high-quality window and door solutions across the nation. The decision to consolidate operations stems from a commitment to continuous improvement and operational excellence. By integrating production into facilities equipped with advanced manufacturing technologies, MITER Brands aims to enhance overall efficiency and responsiveness to market demands.
Craig Nath, Senior Vice President of Operations for MITER Brands, expressed deep appreciation for the Simi Valley team’s contributions over the years. “Our team in Simi Valley has been instrumental in delivering top-tier products and exceptional customer experiences,” said Nath. “We are incredibly grateful for the dedication and hard work of our team members, and we recognize their vital role in the success of the MILGARD brand.”
Seamless Transition for Customers and Partners
Customers and partners can rest assured that this transition will not disrupt the availability of MILGARD products or compromise service quality.

“As we embark on this transition, our primary focus remains on delivering a seamless experience for our customers and partners,” Nath added. “Over the past several years, we have strategically enhanced our manufacturing capabilities to sustain the excellence and value associated with our products.”
By shifting production to facilities with state-of-the-art equipment and optimized workflows, MITER Brands can achieve greater consistency in production, improve lead times, and continue to meet growing customer demand efficiently.
Support for Affected Employees
MITER Brands recognizes that this transition impacts employees at the Simi Valley facility, and the company is committed to supporting them during this period. The company is actively working with affected team members to explore job placement opportunities within MITER Brands or within the local community.
“Our people are the backbone of our success, and we are dedicated to providing them with resources and support during this transition,” Nath emphasized. “Whenever possible, we will assist with job placement, training opportunities, and connections to other available roles in the area.”
MITER Brands’ leadership team is also collaborating with local workforce development organizations and industry partners to facilitate employment transitions and provide additional resources for employees seeking new opportunities.
