In 1997, C & C Marine and Repair, L.L.C. originally
opened as a small three-acre facility on the Harvey
Canal, providing general fabrication services and
specializing in plant maintenance and repairs. Within
our first few months of operations, C & C Marine
and Repair fabricated numerous specialty items such
as hoppers, conveyors, and crane pedestals.
In the spring of 1998, the Company purchased its
first two dry docks for the sole purpose of rebuilding
and reselling them at a later date. In response
to our dry dock acquisitions, however, there was
an overwhelming demand from existing customers to
provide barge repairs and marine fabrication. As
a result, C & C Marine not only kept those two
dry docks but also acquired or built four additional
docks for its own use over the course of the following
five years.
Due to a widening customer base and the ever-evolving
marketplace, C & C Marine and Repair shifted
its focus from performing plant work to providing
a full range of marine and fabrication services
including general fabrication, barge fabrication,
barge repairs, barge stacking, vessel conversions,
and sandblasting and painting.
In 2001, the Company relocated to its current
40-acre facility, at 701 Engineers Road, with
more than 150,000 square feet of covered shop
area and 1,350 feet of bulkheaded water frontage.
This new facility enabled C & C Marine to
expand its operations to perform large fabrication
projects for the general marine industry. The
new facility improved productivity thus enabling
us to better serve our customers and their increasing
demands.
C & C Marine and Repair continues to gain
new customers in the general marine business segment,
while remaining loyal to its initial customers.
