About the AEM Manufacturing Express

AEM Manufacturing Express

The Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) will hit the road this summer for an unprecedented initiative to tell the story of the U.S. equipment manufacturing industry and celebrate the 2.3 million men and women who help build, power, and feed the world.

The “AEM Manufacturing Express” will launch on July 1, 2024, at Weiler, Inc. in Knoxville, Iowa and travel across the country through October when it will wrap up with a finale event at Komatsu in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The tour will visit more than 20 states, with stops planned at more than 80 AEM Member manufacturing facilities in communities across the Midwest, Southeast, and Mid-Atlantic. Participating AEM member manufacturers include companies such as AGCO Corporation, CNH Industrial, Caterpillar Inc., Cummins Inc., Deere & Company, Komatsu, Kubota, The Toro Company, Vermeer Corporation, and Volvo Group. The full route is available on the tour’s official website: www.manufacturingexpress.org.

AEM, along with its 1,100 member companies, spanning 200-plus product lines, plays a pivotal role in making valuable, significant, and unique contributions to both local communities and the national economy.
