Our team, located in Standish, has been building the #1 brand of hand trucks in the US for over 75 years – Magliner,” said Magline President and COO Greg Ecker. “We’re proud of the contributions our Team has made to our local community, and the MEDC support will continue to help us further grow to support the Michigan economy. Thank You Brenda Flory, this would not have happened without your commitment and passion to sponsor this initiative.”
