Felling Trailers Inc. has been selected for a stop on the AEM Manufacturing Express tour, recognizing the company and its team members as an industry leader for their contributions to the local community and manufacturing industry.
The AEM Manufacturing Express will make its tenth stop on its national tour at Felling’s Sauk Centre, Minnesota, headquarters on July 16. The tour covers more than 20 states with 80 stops at equipment manufacturers to showcase the cutting-edge technology and innovations that power modern equipment, as well as the innovative technologies, processes, people, and products revolutionizing this industry across America.
The stop will highlight Felling’s initiative to provide high-level training through their weld training center, state-of-the-art powder coat facility, and throughout their plant. The event will also be a celebration of the company’s 50th anniversary.
“This tour serves as a uniquely valuable opportunity to reflect on the people who have made that happen and where we want to take things over the next half-century," Felling CEO Brenda Jennissen said.
Felling is a strong supporter of AEM’s grassroots I Make America campaign that advocates for policies that support manufacturing jobs in America, added VP of Sales & Marketing Patrick Jennissen.
“The ‘Manufacturing Express’ celebrates our team members and community while highlighting our contribution to American manufacturing and the U.S. economy,” he said. “It’s an opportunity to invite our team members, policymakers, and journalists to come together to learn about and celebrate Felling Trailers Inc. and our role in driving innovation, economic growth, and job creation in the region for fifty years.”
Those invited to the event will have the opportunity to learn about and tour Felling’s new weld training center and powder coat facility.
“We are thrilled to be joining with so many community leaders and supporters of Felling Trailers Inc. for this amazing opportunity to highlight the importance of American off-highway equipment manufacturing in Sauk Centre,” stated Megan Tanel, AEM President. “The ‘AEM Manufacturing Express’ is more than just a bus tour; it is an opportunity to tell the stories of the men and women of our industry in Sauk Centre and highlight how their grit, determination, and can-do spirit has been pivotal to the American way of life."
While the event will help spotlight Felling Trailers, Inc., the manufacturing industry, and policies supporting manufacturers, it is planned to be fundamentally a celebration with games, food, and a chance to win prizes.
