Man•u•fac•ture 2016

January 2016

In light of various conversations and whisperings about just how many, or few, manufacturers exist in our 18 counties of Western North Carolina, we decided it might be helpful to present a list of them to you, our reader. There are many useful lists and organizations providing lists, either as a public service (as the many we spoke with do) or for sale. We found that while these lists are relatively accurate at a local level, there were more discrepancies as the area of interest becomes larger.

*If you would like the purchase the list with names and contact information please email: editor@capitalatplay.com

View by county:
Avery, Buncombe, Cherokee, Clay, Haywood, Henderson, Jackson, Macon, Madison, McDowell, Mitchell, Polk, Rutherford,
Swain, Transylvania, Watauga, Yancey
