Cummins Inc. has announced the 50th anniversary of its Jamestown (NY) Engine Plant (JEP).

“This milestone marks half a century of cutting-edge engineering, dedicated workforce and commitment to community and sustainability,” according to a press release. “Since its establishment in 1974, JEP has been at the forefront of engine manufacturing, recently celebrating the production of its 2.5 millionth engine, and continually sets industry standards for quality, efficiency and innovation. The plant’s success is a testament to the hard work and dedication of its employees, past and present, and the support of the Jamestown community.

“JEP has continually evolved to meet the changing needs of the market, pioneering advancements in engine technology that reduce emissions and improve fuel efficiency. The plant’s state-of-the-art facilities and commitment to research and development have made it a key player in Cummins’ global operations.

Over the years, the plant has contributed to local economic growth, provided jobs and supported numerous community initiatives.
