HENDERSON, Nev.(Oct. 7, 2025) - The City of Henderson recognized Manufacturing Day today, Oct. 7, at a luncheon that celebrated the contributions and successes of Henderson's local manufacturing industry.

Companies like ANA Corp, Summitz Footwear, TH Foods and Sunshine Minting were in attendance at today's luncheon where Mayor Michelle Romero and other City leaders provided remarks.

"National Manufacturing Day is a great opportunity to celebrate the stars in our community," said Mayor Michelle Romero. "Manufacturing helped build this city and I'm proud of the rapid growth we have seen in this sector over the last few years. With our focused efforts to further economic diversification and our commitment to developing the skilled workforce these companies need, we are excited to welcome Haas Automation and additional industry leaders in the near future."

Manufacturing is a key driver of Henderson's economic success. More than 100 manufacturing firms operate in the city, providing over 7,000 jobs.

To support this growing industry, the City partnered with the College of Southern Nevada to launch the Center of Excellence, an advanced manufacturing training facility that helps establish a skilled workforce pipeline.

The City also works closely with Workforce Connections, Southern Nevada's Local Workforce Development Board, to connect job seekers with education, training, and employment opportunities in manufacturing and other industries.

On behalf of the industry, ANA Corp Director of Operations Kevin Calchary accepted a proclamation from Mayor Michelle Romero recognizing Manufacturing Day.
