Zoeller Proud to Say, "Made in the USA" With a reputation for producing high per- forming, quality products, Zoeller has a rich heritage based on "Made In The USA" manufacturing. Although it has expanded over the years, the company still manufactures its products at its orig- inal location in Louisville, Kentucky, very similarly to how it has done it for over 80 years. According to President Bill Zoeller, this isn't a fad for Zoeller Company. "When our competitors were moving manufacturing jobs to Mexico and China, we never left! We have continued to sup- port our employees – the American work- er – right here in the United States." Mr. Zoeller gives a great deal of credit to his Louisville workforce. "With many employees working for us 25, 30, even 40-plus years, these employees are the best reason our customers can be confi- dent a Zoeller pump works right out of the box without call-backs." According to Mark Huntebrinker, Director of Marketing, "Zoeller's com- mitment to the U.S. workforce, while empowering the American worker, is fairly unique in the plumbing industry." Moving into the 2020 calendar year, Zoeller will continue to emphasize the importance of keeping jobs in America while supporting its American workforce and maintaining product quality and dependability. Founded in 1939 and headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, Zoeller Company is one of the oldest independ- ently-owned professional pump manu- facturers in North America. Since that time, Zoeller has estab- lished itself as a leader in pump equipment and tech- nology, producing durable, long-lasting products that customers can rely on. Zoeller offers a broad range of pumps and package systems for both wastewater and potable water applications. Over the years, the company has expanded to new locations, continually offering new and diverse products to meet the needs of the industry today. Visit Zoeller at booth #C8745.
