In kyrillic it is 'ЗиС' and in long 'Завод имени Сталина'. Transcribed it would be 'ZiS' and 'Zavod imeni Stalina' which translates to 'Plant of Stalin's name'. Before and after Stalin the factory was named 'ZiL' (Zavod imeni Likhacheva) and today they use a small middle letter: http://amo-zil.ru/zil_eng/8.html#view Therefore it would probably be correct to write 'ZiS' and 'ZiL' likewise.
