State chapter
ReshoreWI
ReshoreWI exists to help Wisconsin bring manufacturing home through state-level coordination, research, education, partnerships, and practical import-substitution work.
State opportunity
Wisconsin's reshoring opportunity is measurable.
ReshoreWI can organize Wisconsin's manufacturers, public leaders, educators, and economic-development partners around a visible $20.9B tier 1-3 reshoring opportunity. The state already has 460,300 manufacturing workers, 8,000 manufacturers, and $75.1B in manufacturing value added. The data also shows $36.4B in imports against $27.1B in exports, creating a $9.3B trade deficit. That makes Wisconsin a practical place to identify import-substitution targets, connect buyers and suppliers, and turn reshoring from a national idea into local projects. The opportunity equals roughly 28% of current manufacturing value added and ranks No. 18 nationally in this dataset.
