Honored to Be Recognized Among Wisconsin’s Best

While Imperial Industries did not take home the Wisconsin Manufacturer of the Year award, the evening marked an important milestone for our company.

Being recognized as a finalist in the Wisconsin Manufacturer of the Year (MOTY) awards, hosted by Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce (WMC), is an honor. The program celebrates manufacturing excellence, innovation, and leadership across the state — and we are proud to have been included among this year’s finalists.

This recognition reflects the dedication of our employees, the strength of our leadership, and the intentional transformation we have undertaken over the past several years. From investments in technology and systems to strengthening our culture and operational excellence, this acknowledgment affirms that our progress is visible.

“Recognition like this reflects the resilience of our people. While we didn’t take home the award, we’re proud of how far we’ve come — and even more excited about where we’re going.”
— Laura Strek, President, Imperial Industries

The event also reinforced something we deeply believe: Wisconsin manufacturing is strong. The innovation, craftsmanship, and resilience represented in that room were inspiring. We are grateful to organizations like WMC and their partners for highlighting the importance of manufacturing to our state’s economy and future workforce.

This recognition represents more than a single evening. It signals momentum — in our brand presence, operational performance, and long-term growth strategy.

We look forward to continuing our engagement with Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce and pursuing additional opportunities that align with our vision for growth and industry leadership.

Most importantly, we remain focused on what matters most: building exceptional products, investing in our people, and strengthening the communities we serve.

We are proud of our team. And we are confident in the direction we are heading.

We’re Imperial.
