Kristin Shaw+FollowDetroit’s Propeller Glow-Up: What’s Up?Ever heard of a boat propeller that saves gas and keeps things quiet? Sharrow Marine just tripled its production space in Detroit to meet crazy demand for their super-efficient, whisper-quiet propellers. This isn’t just a win for boaters—more jobs are coming to Detroit, and your next fishing trip might be a lot smoother (and cheaper on fuel). It’s a big step for local manufacturing and anyone who loves the water! #Business #Industry #DetroitJobs10Share
Robert Evans+FollowAnother Round of Auto Layoffs Hits DetroitHeads up if you’re in the auto biz or just love your sunroof: Webasto, the company behind many car roofs (think Ford Bronco tops), is laying off 134 folks at its New Hudson plant. Why? Fewer cars rolling off the line means less need for roofs, so they’re moving work to another location. If you’re job-hunting or know someone in auto, it’s a reminder to keep your resume ready—this isn’t the first round of cuts, and probably not the last. #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #DetroitJobs00Share
