Manufacturers of the Year Converge on Grays Harbor

Three past and present winners of the manufacturer of the year award met in Aberdeen, Washington for a trip through the past and discussion of the future. 

Ron, Dave & Ken Windell of Grays Harbor Stamp Works, in its 93rd year, invited John Clark and Derek Persons of Stamp-Connection along with Tony Pezze of United Marking to tour their facilities and show them that the same craftsmanship that brought success to past generations of stamp makers is still viable in today's high tech world.

"Meeting another company that takes pride in their work such as Grays Harbor inspires us to do better." says John Clark of Stamp-Connection. "And the success that all of our companies have shown during these tough economic times proves that a quality product and exceptional customer service still matters above all else."

The night started with a tour of the manufacturing process that Grays Harbor uses to turn out high quality rubber stamps and engraved products. 

The equipment, some well over 50 years, is still going strong and is used on a daily basis. 

"You can't help but to feel proud working on the same benches and using the same equipment that our father and grandfather used to build the business." says Ken Windell. "The rubber stamp industry has been good to our family."
