Celebrating National Manufacturing Day at American Woodmark

October 2, 2020

Did you know October 2nd was National Manufacturing Day? The day is recognized each year on the first Friday in October to highlight the important role that manufacturing plays in our communities and spotlight manufacturing careers.

Leading up to the official day of recognition yesterday, we turned to social media for a fun, interactive “What is the Job” series that shared photos of our teammates in action! Earlier this month, we featured a Q & A session with our Lincolnton Plant Director of Manufacturing Tony Holifield. We also shared an original coloring page for our teammates to take home to their children within our locations.

To celebrate National Manufacturing Day itself, we hosted Facebook Live tours of our Kiest Plant in Texas and Hamlet Plant in North Carolina.
