Paul and John Lordan are brothers and co-business owners of Steele Canvas Basket — a manufacturing organization that's been around for more than 100 years. Now here's what's interesting... While the business environment has changed dramatically over the course of a whole century, their core product has remained largely the same. So how's that possible? As these two manufacturing leaders will tell you, success has been a product of the fundamentals: Focus. Resilience. Product quality. Open-mindedness of leadership. Respecting the people. Commitment to their community. My key takeaway? You don't have to go cheap or sell out to run a great manufacturing business.
