Course Description
There are many success stories about small precast manufacturers, or “Mom and Pop” operations. Using different strategies, they have managed to increase production, diversify their product lines, expand their market and outgrow that small company category. Today, the construction industry is still on an upward trend with a lot of infrastructure work on the horizon and many smaller manufacturers are in the midst of growing their operations. There are many factors to consider when embarking on this mission. What direction to take? What about workforce? What about the logistics of a plant expansion? During this webinar, we will have guest speakers representing member manufacturing companies that have been down this path. You will hear from members who have made many right decisions along with perhaps a few wrong ones, and they will share their advice and wisdom as well as take questions from attendees. Don’t miss this amazing opportunity to learn from others that have been where you’re headed.
