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
