If you’re not moving forward you’re moving backwards.

It’s a pretty old saying but it’s true. Status quo is not a good thing and unfortunately our industrial markets are just that…stuck in cruise control! Why? The market needs to grow and they’re not growing! Yes, companies are moving and expanding here and there. Even better, there are numerous examples of companies expanding their existing facilities here in Connecticut.

But when it comes to real expansion, unfortunately we continue to struggle to convince out of state manufacturers to relocate or expand to our region. So while we continue to see internal growth we also continue to lose at the game of external growth. That means more of the same for the foreseeable future.

But again, if you’re not moving forward, you’re moving backwards.

Keep smiling!
