Saskatchewan Manufacturing Week 2008

Manufacturing is one of three major wealth-generating sectors in the province. Our manufacturers produce a wide range of major goods, and we export about 80% of what we manufacture.

The focus of the week is to celebrate Saskatchewan's manufacturing expertise, the successes our businesses and communities are achieving, and to highlight the training and career opportunities that are available in Saskatchewan's vibrant and innovative manufacturing sector.

The ingenuity and skill of 30,000 people and an abundance of resource wealth have driven the growth of Saskatchewan's manufacturing and processing industry, with shipments of about $10 billion annually.

There will be a special feature in the May 24th edition of the Leader-Post and StarPhoenix  highlighting Saskatchewan's manufacturing excellence.
