Makin' It Here
Yeah, we just wrapped up a video for longtime client Excel Dryer. We really feel good about this one. They’re a great family-run business and all their products are made in the USA. They do things the right way and treat their employees like an extension of their family. That's why some of them have been there for 40 plus years. The video was shot by another longtime associate, Tim O’Donnell, who runs Pixela Films.
Another family-run business whose products are made in America is Wiffle Ball, located in Shelton, CT. I’ve known Dave Mullaney Jr., the President of Wiffle, for years. We’ve done some promos together and most recently teamed up with John Fitzgerald, founder of the Irish American Baseball Organization, and Wiffle Ball—sending hundreds of balls and bats to Ireland to be used to teach kids how to play baseball.
Both families insist on making their products in the USA, and neither will veer from that commitment. I tell ya, that’s USA manufacturing at its best. Watch the video below and keep your dukes up.
