Manufacturing Monday
Posted September 5, 2018
As part of Advancing Macomb’s mission to help Macomb County grow as good place to live, work, and play, we began our #ManufacturingMonday Twitter campaign to promote the strong manufacturing community in the county. Since December 2017, Advancing Macomb has been taking to Twitter on Mondays to highlight local manufacturers. Macomb County has a wealth of manufacturers in a variety of industries - automotive, aerospace, defense, industrial, agricultural, etc. The goal is to make these companies more visible to our community and to others in the industry.
