This is a good area for manufacturing companies, and the economy is very strong. Doe Iron Works specializes in repairing farm and industrial equipment. Keeping up with new technologies, we have moved into the computer age with computerized welding, stock management, and parts ordering. We have the most versatile parts department in the state. Please give us a call if we can help you get settled.
I am also the president of the local manufacturing association. Our next meeting is June 12, and I would like to invite you to attend. I will call with more specific information.
Again, welcome. I believe your company will be a real asset to our community.

We are sure you'll be equally pleased with the area.
All of the business owners in the community meet the first Tuesday of every month for lunch at the Chamber of Commerce building at 1600 Main Street. We hope you will join us.
