Sherrill Manufacturing (Sherrill, New York) has received the 2019 National Metalworking Reshoring Award. The award, given by the Reshoring Initiative, the Precision Metalforming Association (PMA), AMT – The Association For Manufacturing Technology and the National Tooling and Machining Association (NTMA), honors companies for effectively reshoring products, parts or tooling made primarily by metalforming, fabricating, casting or machining (including additive manufacturing).
Sherrill Manufacturing was chosen as the award winner this year because, according to the Reshoring Initiative, its success demonstrates that it is feasible to reshore whole product categories, including everyday products such as dining flatware. When Oneida Ltd. ceased operations a few years ago, U.S. flatware production became offshored, primarily to Asia.

Sherrill is now growing consistently. Read More.
