Over the last few years, there’s been a steady drumbeat of news about reshoring. Politicians mention it, press headlines highlight it, and major manufacturers talk about it.

Are you seeing reshoring actually happen on the ground?

But here’s the real question:

We want to hear from you — whether you’re in aerospace, automotive, electronics, defense, small batch, or contract manufacturing. What’s your take? Is reshoring changing your business? Are suppliers adapting?

Let’s talk about what’s really happening in U.S. manufacturing.
