GR8T Manufacturing (a Next Generation Sector Partnership for the 8 counties of Northwest Pennsylvania) is collaborating with regional website developer, weCreate, on a B2B website for manufacturers. The website is geared for manufacturers in the tri-state region (PA, OH, NY) to facilitate connections and regional sourcing opportunities. After a soft launch, the website is already up to approximately 100 manufacturer listings and is continuing to grow. There are opportunities to profile your company with free basic listings or premium listings for a minimal cost to include photos, videos, and prime placement. Manufacturing companies outside of the tri-state area will not be permitted to register a profile for their company on the site, however, anyone from anywhere will be able to view the capabilities of all the great resources in our region.

Chair of the Partnership’s B2B Connections Action Team, Matt Lucco of Precision Profiles in Titusville PA, put it simply that “a B2B platform is a critical tool that will aid in connecting manufacturing companies in the region with the ultimate goal of expanding Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and jobs in the region. This can be achieved by providing companies with greater visibility
concerning the capabilities and potential deliverables of their fellow manufacturers.”
