Northshore Manufacturing, Inc.

So you want to know a little more about us... Northshore Manufacturing Inc. was founded in 1989 and is located in Two Harbors, Minnesota, U.S.A., along the North Shore of Lake Superior. The company manufactures custom, knuckle boom material handlers and attachments for use in the waste (garbage, scrap, debris) reduction and recycling industries. Northshore shifted its marketing focus shortly after it was founded from timber harvesting and logging to these new, growing markets. NorthshoreÕs seasoned staff prides itself in producing products to meet their customersÕ specific needs. Working with our distributors, consulting engineering firms, other original equipment manufacturers and end users directly, we do everything possible to make sure we get it right the first time, including using the best computer design software possible. At the current time, Northshore is the exclusive supplier of material handlers for three prominent mobile waste shredding, grinding and baling O.E.M.Õs, along with designing and manufacturing its own line of equipment. Northshore products can be found all over North America and has recently expanded its market to overseas customers as well. In January of 2000, an ESOP plan was formed between Northshore Manufacturing, Inc. and its employees, providing employee ownership equal to their percentage of stock ownership. Currently, the employees own 60% with the remaining 40% still with the original owner, John Anderson, President and CEO. We take pride in not only our in-house designs but also the fact that the lionÕs share of our manufacturing is done here at our factory in Two Harbors. The vast majority of our employees live in the Two Harbors and Duluth areas, providing a real impact to our local economy. In 2009, we completed our new expansion which increased our square footage to approximately 55,000 square feet. In this expansion, we added a state of the art paint booth, grapple fabrication facility, new assembly area including a hydraulic test stand, used to test all of our equipment and finally, more room to weld and machine our products. We invite all current and prospective customers to visit our facility. Our normal business hours are from 7:30 - 4:30, Monday through Friday. Please call us in advance for an appointment. We would be happy to show you what we have to offer.
