Meet the Makers: Paul
We are fortunate to have an incredible team of dedicated individuals that are behind the strength of the Nordic Ware brand. These are the hard-working Americans who create, craft make, inspect, pack, ship, and bring our products to life. They’re the makers who touched your cookie sheet, your Bundt cake pan, and your griddle with their own hands as each piece was being made. Without them, our brand and products would be something much less. In these candid Q&A sessions, we highlight the human element of what makes Nordic Ware a leader in the American manufacturing industry. Through this lens, you will see that the strength of ‘family’ runs deep within our company DNA– a trait we take great pride in. We’re darn proud to introduce you to each one of these fine folks!
