John Vujevic and Arthur Turnbull have formed United States Fastener Group LLC, a new minority-owned fastener manufacturer in South Holland, IL. The partners bought a 44,000 sq ft plant from South Holland plating, where USFG will use Multitech machines to produce sheared pintail fasteners, the UNA-DRIV fastening system and bolts up to 1 inch in diameter and 8 inches long.
“Our vision is to become a globally recognized, quality-driven supplier,” stated Turnbull.
Vujevic is a 38-year fastener industry veteran whose former firm, Total American Bolt Inc., was one of Chicago’s largest manufacturers of structural bolts.
Turnbull is a marketing consultant.
USFG has capacity to produce 300 tons a month, with first year revenue projections of $2.5 million. The company hopes to grow sales by $1 million per year.
