Once home to pioneering industrialists like Henry Ford and his motor company and the Upton Brothers of Whirlpool fame, Michigan has long been known for ingenuity. Today everything from bowling balls to kayaks; wind turbines to solar panels; soy candles to plastic toys are made here. In addition to a booming manufacturing base cranking out products around the clock, there are thousands of boutique businesses creating quality goods in small batches. From large to small, integrity and pride are hallmarks of products made in Michigan.
