Applications for the 2015 Annual Wisconsin Manufacturer of the Year Award program are due Friday, Nov. 20. The winners will be announced at an award ceremony scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 25 at The Pfister Hotel in Milwaukee.
Now in its 28th year, the Manufacturer of the Year Award program pays tribute to the numerous manufacturers in Wisconsin across all industries and sectors of the economy that remain devoted to creating a better quality of life for the citizens of Wisconsin.
Nominees will be divided into four categories determined by size: small (1-99 employees), medium (100-299 employees), large (300-750 employees) and mega (751+ employees).
All manufacturers with significant physical presence/operations in Wisconsin are eligible to apply. There is no entry fee.
Last year’s local winners were Waukesha-based HUSCO International Inc., which won a Grand Award in the mega category, and Glendale-based General Plastics Inc., which took home a Grand Award in the small category.
The Manufacturer of the Year Award program is sponsored by Baker Tilly Virchow Krause LLP, Michael Best & Friedrich LLP and Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce.
