CYPRESS, Calif., September 29, 2025–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–The Elevator and Escalator Division of Mitsubishi Electric US, Inc., (Mitsubishi Electric), headquartered in Cypress, California, proudly commemorates 40 years of service in the United States, marking four decades of innovation, quality, and customer-first excellence in vertical transportation.<\/p>\n Since entering the U.S. market in 1985, Mitsubishi Electric US, Inc., has grown from a single-office operation to a trusted name in elevator and escalator systems nationwide. Today, the company supports major metropolitan markets across the country, providing state-of-the-art elevator and escalator solutions for high-profile commercial buildings, transit centers, hospitality properties, and mixed-use developments.<\/p>\n “Reaching 40 years in the U.S. is a testament to our people, our partners, and our unwavering commitment to quality, reliability, and engineering excellence,” said Erik Zommers, senior vice president and general manager of Mitsubishi Electric US, Inc., Elevator and Escalator Division. “We\u2019re not just celebrating the passage of time – we\u2019re celebrating the trust we\u2019ve earned from our customers and the impact we\u2019ve made on the cities we serve.”<\/p>\n To honor this milestone, Mitsubishi Electric is hosting a 4 day-long celebration for its employees across the U.S., both virtually and in-person, with daily themes, keynote speakers and messages from the division\u2019s earliest U.S. team members.
