For the third year in a row, Minnesota Business magazine has named Minimizer, leader in poly semi truck fenders, as a finalist for its Manufacturing Awards.
Minimizer is one of three companies up for the title of “Best in Class – Midsize.”
“It’s a huge honor for Minimizer to be mentioned in the same breath as so many other great companies,” said Minimizer CEO and Chief Visionary Craig Kruckeberg.
The company employs nearly 100 people in the small town of Blooming Prairie.
“This nomination is a testament to the people we have in place,” said Jim Richards, Minimizer vice president of operations. “Everyone works hard and contributes to the team. It really is like a family around here.”
Each year, Minnesota Business recognizes the manufacturing sector for outstanding achievements. The panel of judges chose the finalists from a pool of manufacturing companies and executives.
“We really appreciate Minnesota Business going to bat for the manufacturing sector,” said Kruckeberg. “We always hear about ‘Made in the USA,’ and these awards do their part to help celebrate that.”
Winners in each category will be announced at an awards event on Sept. 20. Both winners and finalists will be honored in the September/October 2018 issue of Minnesota Business magazine.
