1930 was also the year that Los Angeles Die Casting opened its doors at 340 Crocker Street in downtown Los Angeles. We were a job shop that made custom aluminum and zinc die castings for the local manufacturing trade. We quickly picked up several local and out of state customers in the automotive, electrical, plumbing, lighting, and food and beverage industries. As time went on we were lucky enough to add customers in the defense, aviation, home appliance, hardware, entertainment, and recreation vehicle supplies business. We stayed in downtown Los Angeles until 2002 when we moved to our new facility in the City of Commerce.
