  • National Manufacturing Day 2025

October 3, 2025, marks National Manufacturing Day (MFG Day), a nationwide initiative designed to spotlight the transformative power of modern manufacturing. Spearheaded by The Manufacturing Institute and the National Association of Manufacturers, this annual event, held on the first Friday of October, opens factory doors across the U.S. to students, educators, and community leaders, showcasing the high-tech, high-skill careers that define today’s industrial landscape.

Manufacturing Day is not just a celebration; it is a strategic movement. With over 3.8 million manufacturing jobs projected to go unfilled in the next decade, MFG Day aims to inspire the next generation of innovators by:

  • Demystifying the industry: Breaking outdated perceptions and highlighting advanced technologies like robotics, AI, and cloud ERP.
  • Connecting communities: Encouraging partnerships between manufacturers, schools, and local organizations.
  • Driving workforce development: Empowering students to explore STEM careers and hands-on training opportunities.

Today’s manufacturers are no longer defined by assembly lines alone, they are powered by data, automation, and digital ecosystems. On Manufacturing Day 2025, we celebrate the tools and platforms that are reshaping the industry:

  • Cloud ERP Solutions: Platforms like Epicor Kinetic and Epicor Prophet 21 enable real-time visibility, predictive analytics, and agile decision-making.
  • AI & Automation: From Copilot-assisted workflows to Power Automate-driven processes, manufacturers are streamlining operations and reducing downtime.
  • Cybersecurity & Compliance: As factories become smarter, securing operational technology (OT) and aligning with frameworks like NIST and CMMC is mission critical.

This year, the U.S. Census Bureau is amplifying the celebration with webinars, infographics, and data-driven insights into the sector’s economic impact. From export growth to supply chain resilience, the message is clear: manufacturing is not just surviving, it is thriving.

National Manufacturing Day 2025 is more than a moment; it is a movement. It is a chance to honor the makers, the technologists, and the trailblazers who are building the future of American industry. Whether you are hosting a plant tour, sharing a client success story, or launching a campaign, today is the day to shine a spotlight on innovation.

As manufacturers embrace digital transformation, 2W Tech stands at the forefront, delivering tailored technology solutions that drive operational excellence and innovation. With deep expertise in Epicor ERP, Microsoft Azure, and cybersecurity frameworks, 2W Tech empowers industrial organizations to modernize their infrastructure, streamline workflows, and gain real-time visibility across the supply chain.
