IHC also added a home production and systems advisor in Phoenix, and a Business Development consultant on the East Coast. IHC’s plans for operations in 2023 include expanding and diversifying our customer base. IHC’s expansion model is based on first creating order flow in a new region. IHC starts by increasing orders at existing factories that can be partially directed to the new factory to add to the first several years of production and sales. Operations over the last three years provides the experience to know what is needed to plan for successful expansion of new operations. IHC’s team understands that each new region will require paying attention to the uniqueness of each new region and possible new operating challenges.
All manufacturing is presently being completed at IHC’s Salem, Oregon 69,000 square foot facility, which has been upgraded to increase production in 2023 to up to 24 homes per month. Expanded production will allow the Company to continue to meet sales orders for existing customers and manage the order flow from new dealers and development projects. IHC has been planning a new factory facility in Phoenix, Arizona to meet order demand from customers in Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and the market for ADUs in Southern California.
Production in 2023 includes Nevada homes under contract that are going to be manufactured as part of a multiphase project that the developer has indicated could include over 300 homes, as well as a diverse group of clients in the Pacific Northwest, Arizona and California.
