Casting Source’s July/August 2021 Q&A article, “You Don’t Have To Be Monet,” by Kim Phelan, featuring Reg Zeller

Casting Source: You’re passionate about bringing manufacturing back to America, and certainly the reasons are many to do so. But is it one of those things that’s easier said than done?

Reg Zeller: I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had this conversation with customers. Bringing something back to the U.S. is substantially easier than what it takes to initially get something going overseas.

We created our own proprietary development process to make this simple. We’ve continued to refine the process so we know all the questions to ask; we have a checklist that we go through and it’s completely transparent to the casting buyers. We just make sure everything is taken care of and we walk them through it.
