North Carolina Congressman Tim Moore Visits Steffes in Shelby

Steffes’s Vice President of Operations, Samantha Erhardt, and Shelby Operations Manager, Nate Begley, recently welcomed Congressman Tim Moore to our Shelby facility to experience firsthand the influence of manufacturing in western North Carolina.

Congressman Moore, who served as the Speaker of the North Carolina House of Representatives for a decade before being elected to represent North Carolina’s 14th Congressional District, has long been an advocate for industry growth across the state. During his tenure as Speaker, he helped attract major industries to western North Carolina, including manufacturing, paving the way for companies like Steffes to establish a strong presence in the region.

“We were excited to welcome Tim Moore to our facility,” said Begley. “This visit gave him the opportunity to see firsthand the strong partnerships we have made in Cleveland County.”

Before Steffes moved into the current building in Shelby, Congressman Moore toured it when it was just a shell. On his return visit, he expressed how impressed he was with Steffes’s investment in advanced manufacturing technology and how that investment has benefited both the company and the local community.

Our team was proud to showcase the growth and progress we’ve made since his last visit and left feeling energized and refreshed by the shared commitment to advancing manufacturing in North Carolina.
