U.S. Manufacturers Most Positive in NAM Survey History

Thought I'd share the Manufacturing Outlook 2018 Survey by the National Association of Manufactures (NAM).

Two findings:

• The highest annual positive outlook (92.4%) by manufacturers in the survey’s 20-year history.
• Their top 3 challenges: workforce retention, raw material costs, and trade uncertainties.
  
  

You can read the full NAM report here.

We're considering sponsoring a similar survey focused on small manufacturers - let us know of you'd be interested in participation, getting the results, or have questions you'd like to pose. If so, just email your request.

Best,
