| Manual
Woodworkers & Weavers, Inc. is one
of the leading manufacturers and marketers
of home furnishing products in the United States.
In the last 70
years of our existence in this business, Manual has grown from a small souvenir
business into one of the prominent players of the home décor industry.
In
order to meet the ever-growing demand of
our customers, and reduce the time period
from manufacturing a product to shipping
it to the buyer, Manual invested its resources
in building a state-of-the-art warehouse
and distribution center. The accuracy of
orders, the quality of shipments, and the
prompt delivery of products have now become
the focal points of our company. Our excellence
in these areas has made us the premier order
fulfillment company in our industry. |
