AZ Economy is FAB-ulous!

We can appreciate a multitude of industries that have contributed to the great success of the State of Arizona. One industry that really stands out for helping Arizona's economy grow inviting ever more business to AZ, is the metal fabricating manufacturing industry. Whether you need a tilt up concrete building or a structural steel high rise or a metal truss, metal roof, metal fence, metal railing and such, you will need reliable, established fabricators that can manufacture what you need specifically.

Sure, the chip industry is the driver of AZ economy in a big way. But that does not negate the importance of metal fabrication. It actually underscores it. If you have driven on I-17 heading North to northern Arizona, you have seen the building that was and is required for that TSMC plant. According to Lightcast in 2024, AZ was Top 3 for manufacturing jobs growth. That was just 2 years ago, so can only imagine where we stand now.

According to the Arizona Commerce Authority, "Arizona employs more than 181,900 manufacturing workers, higher than the national median. The state’s abundance of skilled talent is ready to fill positions in advanced manufacturing." Having watched Arizona grow from 1969 to now has been amazing. Of course, I did not notice so much at a young age, but these past 4 decades of being in machinery sales and service industry, it makes me happy to see the expanding passion of manufacturing and fabrication in AZ. Cheers to all businesses that help Arizona's economy succeed. Double cheers to all the manufacturers, fabricators and structural steel companies that work very hard, often in very hot conditions, to not just support themselves, but our great State of AZ.
