With our current facility under expansion construction and a flourishing customer base, the summer of 2017 was another busy period for Jewel-Craft Inc. While the majority of our staff stayed on the ground to manage day-to-day operations, we sent five of our most fearless representatives on the road. Off to trade show land they went.
Together Gary, Ross, Stefanie, Nick and Matt hit seven different cities, covered 17,816 miles, and attended five different tradeshows. All in the course of 33 days. Having a hard time wrapping your head around that? Here’s a summary:
City | Miles Traveled | Days | Show |

We’re happy to report that following the grand adventure everyone arrived back in Kentucky in once piece. Seeing customers, friends, and partners along the road was totally worth missing a few hours of shut-eye. That time is irreplaceable. And, this industry … it’s amazing.
