Take a Made in America Michigan Factory Tour
Welcome to Michigan and our list of Michigan factory tours you can take!
Michigan is my second home, right next to Ohio. Or should I say it’s my first home? Mom and Dad met and married in Michigan. I wasn’t actually born in Michigan because Dad was stationed with the Air Force. But it is the home they brought me to when his service was completed. I live in Toledo, Ohio now, just south of the border but I still consider Michigan one of my homes and it will always be my favorite state to vacation in.
From Addison to Zeeland, American workers are on the job making made in the USA products you might already have in your home. Some, you might be surprised to know are made in Michigan. You can’t tour every Michigan factory, but these are the Michigan factory tours you can take.
Have a great time and maybe I’ll see ya there!
Michigan Factories & Farms That Offer Tours
Michigan Auto Factory Tours
Ford Piquette Plant | Detroit, MI
The Ford Piquette Plant is no longer a working Michigan factory tour. The plant was saved and is now a museum. The Model-T Automotive Heritage Complex, Inc., (dba) the Ford Piquette Avenue Plant, was organized in 2000 as a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization for the purpose of preserving the Plant and keeping it from being demolished. Open year-round as a Museum and education center, the plant now attracts visitors from around the world. It provides special programs and events for bus tours, families, and scores of people attending public and private events from car shows to weddings.
Ford Rouge Factory | Dearborn, MI
When Henry Ford developed the Rouge, his vision was to achieve “a continuous, nonstop process from raw material to finished product, with no pause even for warehousing or storage.” Ford succeeded in rolling out 4,000 vehicles a day and employing more than 100,000 at its peak. Henry Ford’s pioneering industrial complex has been reborn as an international showcase for modern manufacturing and advanced, sustainable environmental design.
