Kreinik Manufacturing Receives Governor Award
KREINIK MANUFACTURING RECEIVES GOVERNOR AWARD PARKERSBURG,
WV—Parkersburg resident Doug Kreinik, owner of Kreinik Manufacturing
Company, was recognized this month by Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin for being
one of West Virginia's top exporters. Kreinik manufactures threads for
hand and machine embroidery, weaving, knitting, fashion and fly fishing
at its Gihon Road facility.
Department of Commerce Secretary Keith Burdette joined Governor Tomblin and members of the West Virginia Export Council at a ceremony in Charleston on July 21, 2015, to recognize West Virginia's top exporters for their success in international markets. Mr. Kreinik received the Governor's Commendation for International Market Entry for expanding to markets in Croatia and Rwanda this past year.
Kreinik Manufacturing was established in the 1970s by Mr. Kreinik's parents, Jerry and Estelle Kreinik, as a way to bring interesting threads and needlework accessories to stitchers, sewers, weavers, and knitters. Expanded over the years and now offering thousands of products, Mr. Kreinik operates the company on core values of supporting independent businesses, artists, and community programs, plus encouraging creativity in everyone.
Kreinik's small but dedicated staff now manufactures threads and products that are sold all over the world. "Kreinik is recognized for high quality product," Mr. Kreinik commented. "We could not do this without the competent people who work here."
The company recently opened a factory outlet store at the facility, 1708 Gihon Road, which is open during weekday business hours. For company information, visit www.kreinik.com.
