With two dedicated manufacturing facilities based in the United States, Mayhew ensures consistently high quality and steady production capabilities. The company also sources some items from global suppliers to make sure all customers and distribution partners get what they need.
Mayhew Tools President John Lawless said, “Reaching 170 years reflects the people behind this company and the consistency of the work they do every day.”
Lawless added, “We continue to manufacture in the United States, invest in our capabilities, and support the professionals who depend on our tools.”
