Wisconsin Prominent Leader in Plastics Industry
Wisconsin is a leader in the plastics industry nationally in terms of employment and total number of manufacturers. Thirty-six percent of all U.S. plastics manufacturing activity takes place within a 500-mile radius of Wisconsin. The significance of Wisconsin's prominence in the industry can be attributed to a business climate favorable to the growth and prosperity of business.

Since moving my small business from Minnesota to Wisconsin, the support has been amazingly strong. Without obtaining a grant to help us attain ISO 9001 status, I don’t know what we would have done. Now that we're in Wisconsin, I wonder why it took us so long to make this decision.
