Montana: A Hidden Powerhouse of Manufacturing 

MMEC   Montana Manufacturing Extension Center

When you think of states with strong manufacturing sectors, which ones come to mind – Michigan, Texas, Ohio?  You might be surprised to learn that Montana stacks up very well when compared to other states.

In the Montana Manufacturing Association’s June newsletter, Montana Chamber President Todd O’Hair called manufacturing the “unsung hero” of Montana’s economy, based on its success in creating well-paid jobs and bringing innovative industries to our state.  Following up on this, I would add that Montana’s contribution to U.S. manufacturing also flies under the radar – and deserves a little more recognition.
