Sumiden Wire Products Corporation was the first manufacturing investment in the United States by Sumitomo Electric Industries (SEI). The investment was made in Stockton, California in 1979 for the production of PC Strand. An additional investment was made in Dickson, TN in 1989 for the production of stainless-steel wire.
