Manufacturing In Alabama And The Current Environment

By Maury D. Gaston

What’s a business leader to do at time such as this?  What is a manufacturing business leader to do at a time such as this?  Does it really matter whether a business is a service provider such as a restaurant or is a manufacturer?  If so, does it matter what the company manufactures?

These are all highly relevant questions in today’s unique environment.

As Chairman of the Alabama Iron and Steel Council, a council of Manufacture Alabama, I have an awareness of and special interest in the role of manufacturing in general and iron and steel manufacturing in particular.
