Altec Hosts Duluth Mayor During Manufacturing Month Tour in Minnesota

Altec was recently honored by Duluth Mayor, Emily Larson, as part of Minnesota’s “Manufacturing Month.” The statewide, month-long effort highlights area manufacturers to educate the public about modern manufacturing jobs and industry innovation. Mayor Larson visited Altec’s Duluth facility with special guest, Canadian Consul General, Khawar Nasim, for a tour and open discussion on manufacturing, expanding the skilled workforce and trading with our Canadian neighbors.

“Duluth has a rich history of crafters, innovators and vision-driven leaders who have sustained our economic health and built up this community and region. I’m proud to have great educational partners and area businesses that have aligned efforts – doing so is absolutely critical to ensure that we have a skilled workforce to meet the needs of our employers and boost recruitment and retention,” said Mayor Larson.

Altec will be hosting student tours as another way to encourage the next workforce generation to pursue a career in manufacturing. The Altec facility located in Duluth, MN is currently hiring for a range of career opportunities. To learn more about current job openings, visit altec.com/careers or call 218-722-9200.
