CVM Inc. is a California-based machinery manufacturer with roots dating to 1980 when it began as Switek Design, a mechanical engineering consultancy for the chemical processing sector. Through the 1980s the firm developed a reputation for careful analysis, design, and project execution on a range of assignments, notably at Clorox's R&D facility in Pleasanton. In 1990, founder Bob Switek introduced a high-speed machine for slicing broccoli in the frozen foods industry, leading to a renaming of the company to California Vegetable Machinery, Inc. This shift enabled CVM to broaden its focus to design and build custom machinery for other industries in addition to its initial consulting work. 
Since the early 1990s, CVM has emphasized support for local research and development facilities, including Clorox and Hexcel Corporation, and has expanded its equipment and personnel over time. Based in Pleasanton, California, the firm operates as a small to mid-sized player in the machinery manufacturing sector, offering custom machinery and related engineering services to clients across various processing and packaging domains.
