Our strategic moves have included moving storage spaces to external locations to free up space for increased dresspack production. This of course required us to invest in new equipment to boost production. In 2024, as part of our effort to continually grow, we’ve made additional investments to enable more efficient production with sustainability in mind. We’ve taken it a step further by purchasing our Lake Orion, Michigan, location. This will enable us to allocate further investments, aiming to enhance our efficiency and throughput, thereby assisting you in enhancing yours.
When it comes to boosting efficiencies, we've made significant strides over the past year in embracing a deeper Kaizen philosophy and fostering a culture of continuous improvement. Our initial focus on root cause analysis and educating all staff members on Kaizen principles has yielded remarkable success. Our inclusive approach allows every member of our organization to contribute ideas and feedback as we progress together on our journey of improvement. Our current Kaizen Production System places strong emphasis on maintaining top-notch quality and refining processes across all departments. Our dedication to continuous improvement showcases our commitment to excellence in our products and services, enhancing customer relationships, and driving innovation in our technologies.
