Small & Micro-Enterprises

The following small businesses are making beautiful, useful and durable products in New England using local labor and sourcing their raw materials from within our region whenever possible. These enterprising businesses have made a commitment to keep all elements of manufacture in our region despite an environment that rewards off-shoring and prevailing “wisdom” that price trumps quality. Many of these firms have been in business for multiple generations, and have only a handful of employees, none larger than 40 employees. While they may be small, these companies are a primary source of employment for people in their area. We encourage you to explore their stories and take a look at their exceptional products.
