занялся так называемым отгрузом - выгоном... с вазовского конвейера автомобилей
set up the so-called dispatching business... driving cars... off the VAZ conveyor


Explanation:
This is how a complete translation may look like:
He was the first in Togliatti to set up a business called dispatching, which meant driving cars of required trim levels and color off the VAZ conveyor to certain areas called "cells/cages."

Note that 'заняться' and 'заниматься' are not synonymous:
заняться ~ to start doing [smth]
заниматься ~ to do [smth]

Since the word "клетки" is in quotation marks, either variant may fit, depending on broader context
