Aldrich is a proud sponsor of MFG Day 2014, a national celebration of the manufacturing industry demonstrating the potential of modern manufacturing, and the opportunity for careers.

In honor of MFG Day 2014, Aldrich has partnered with three regional trade associations to award a Certificate of Recognition to one manufacturing member of each organization.

Northwest Food Processors Association (NWFPA), the leading regional food manufacturing trade association in the U.S., selected Truitt Family Foods to receive the recognition.

Strategic Economic Development Corporation (SEDCOR), supports Economic Development for Marion and Polk Counties helping businesses grow and thrive in the Mid-Willamette Valley. The SECOR MFG Day 2014 recognition is awarded to Modern Building Systems.

To celebrate the recognition of these three manufacturers, Aldrich is making a donation in the name of each recipient to Pathways to Manufacturing, an incubator for high school aged children designed to address industry workforce needs, help lower the drop-out rate, and provide clear pathways to rewarding careers in manufacturing.

The Aldrich Manufacturing Group is actively involved in the manufacturing sector supporting quality associations who also serve manufacturers.Together these organizations strive to provide resources, education, and assistance to help manufacturers take on the challenges and opportunities they face.

“Aldrich wants to do its part to both honor manufacturers and participate in efforts to help with the skilled labor challenges they face,” said John Lauseng, Partner, Aldrich Manufacturing.

“We understand the challenges faced by manufacturers and the opportunities that lie ahead. It’s our privilege to recognize manufacturers and celebrate this day dedicated to the ongoing success of U.S. manufacturing,” said Lauseng.
