...Riordan Operations Christopher E Jenkins BSA 310 March 13, 2012 Ivon Young Riordan Operations Since the creation of Riordan Manufacturing, Inc. in 1992 the company has enjoyed success in the plastics manufacturing sector. The company has grown from a single manufacturing plant in Pontiac, Michigan to adding a Research and Development (R&D) facility in San Jose, California, a second manufacturing plant in Albany, Georgia and an overseas plant in Hangzhou, China.
