International Wire Markets - A Hot Topic for this Year's Fall Operations Managers MeetingYou are invited to join your colleagues or customers in the wire industry at the Operations Managers Meeting of the American Wire Producers Association (AWPA). The meeting will take place October 17-18, 2006 at the Holiday Inn Downtown in South Bend, Indiana. Attendees will enjoy tours of Davis Wire at Niles, Michigan with both carbon and stainless production and the Leggett & Platt plant in Kouts, Indiana. This 2-day program has been designed to suit the needs of the Operations Manager - by providing important information to manage operations and opportunities to confer with colleagues. International wire markets will be our primary topic focusing on the state of wire drawing in China and India. In addition, we have planned a debate about the state of US wire drawing technology vs. other world markets. The new Hex Chrome regulations will be addressed, as well. Roundtable discussions that address topics of current interest are a great opportunity for more interaction. Visit the AWPA website to register today and save time and money! The deadline for early bird meeting registration and hotel reservations is Monday, September 18, 2006. We expect excellent attendance this year, in fact registration numbers are already higher than they have been in years! This means a broader opportunity to speak to others who are in your position and learn how others are solving the issues that face you!
