5 Great Benefits of Plastic Manufacturing in the U.S.
Despite living in the world's greatest nation, it has become tough to find items labeled "Made in America" in recent times. In fact, according to the Washington Post, 98% of shoes worn in the US are made abroad. Then, when you think about plastics, food items, electronics, and a surplus of items used regularly that are made overseas, you may wonder if Americans are producing anything.
The Benefits of Domestic Manufacturing
There are several benefits to choosing a plastic manufacturer located in the USA over those found overseas, especially in the long run.
Jobs
Selecting a US-based plastic manufacturing company translates to job opportunities for Americans. By basing our manufacturing plant in the United States, it means that Bennett is supporting the national and local economy and assisting those to prosper financially.
Supply Chain
In recent years, the logistic costs linked to shipping materials, products, and components across the world have risen significantly. Basing a company locally saves you outbound and inbound delivery and shipping fees.
Short Lead Times
When products have less distance to move to get to the intended retailer or distributor, they can be delivered fast to the consumer. This aspect accelerates the sales process, increases the forecast responses, and ensures that money gets into your account sooner. Having a short lead time also enhances customer contentment.
Guaranteed Quality
Being closer to the production unit enables us to be able to execute tight control over the entire manufacturing process. In the end, it guarantees that all items fit the outlined standards and specifications. If any problem arises, the company can see it and correct it much more quickly – saving money and valuable time in the long run.
Excellent Customer Service
Customer service is an essential part of any organization's success and is mainly influenced by the geographic location of the customer service staff. If the customer service department and centers are locally positioned, the customers will feel deeply connected with the people managing their service issues.
