TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Oct. 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- On October 4, 2017, manufacturers, business leaders, and policymakers from across the state met in Indianapolis to honor those companies that have made outstanding contributions to the development of a healthy, dynamic environment in Indiana, and to the state's overall economic well-being. Clabber Girl is excited to be among the select group of companies acknowledged at this prestigious event, and honored to have been selected as an inductee into the Indiana Manufacturers Hall of Fame.
According to Indiana Manufacturers Association (IMA) President Brian Burton, "Manufacturing is one of the main drivers of Indiana's economy, representing 30% of Indiana's gross domestic product. Clabber Girl is a perfect example of a company that has not only demonstrated its long-term dedication to Indiana manufacturing, but also through its continued support of the IMA, with its overarching goal to protect, support, and grow manufacturing. We are pleased to induct Clabber Girl into our Indiana Manufacturers Hall of Fame."
In response to the induction, Gary Morris, President and Chief Operating Officer of Clabber Girl said, "The employees at Clabber Girl, have an exceptional work ethic, team focus and are dedicated to the company vision. It is because of their efforts and the efforts of those employees that came before them that we have been successful in continuing to grow our business."
The Hall of Fame Luncheon was attended by Indiana Governor Eric Holcomb. In addition, Katz, Sapper & Miller LLP, along with IU professors Dr. Mark Frohlich and Dr. Steve Jones, presented The 2017 Manufacturing Survey results. The results indicate that the Hoosier manufacturing sector remains healthy, although regulatory and workforce challenges continue to blunt its potential growth.
