Center Industries Corporation

Center Industries Corporation (CIC) was founded by John F. “Jack” Jonas in 1975 with the production of license plates for the State of Kansas with only 12 employees, 1 customer, and a 10,000 square foot building. Mr. Jonas saw this opportunity to help our community. And so began the CIC mission to not only employ individuals with disabilities – but to offer them a chance to grow with the company in a long-term career.

Today, Center Industries Corporation is the sole producer of all digital license plates in the State of Kansas, has numerous customers in a variety of industries, and has expanded into 7 buildings encompassing 150,000 square feet of manufacturing space. We’ve grown to offer diverse capabilities including metal fabrication, CNC machining, and assembly.
