Paul R. Mooty, President & Chief Financial Officer, Faribault Woolen Mill Company
THE REVIVAL OF AMERICAN EXCELLENCE
The revival of American excellence is underway here in Faribault, Minnesota. The oldest manufacturing entity in the state of Minnesota dating back to 1865 is again open for business. The Faribault Woolen Mill's tremendous history and longevity is unmatched by most in the textile business. Our success has always been rooted on the company's commitment to quality and durability. And as we move forward this focus will not waiver one bit. However, we recognize that in today's highly dynamic and competitive international marketplace, the ability to meet our customer's expanding expectations for exceptional service, value and unique product design is absolutely critical. Our fully vertically integrated processing here at the Mill ensures the ability to be a viable domestic supplier for large and small customers alike. Our legacy as a family run business will continue and the Mooty's are proud to be the brand stewards for generations to come.
