Local Jar Lid Opportunity Cited By Bernardin Spokesperson
Bernardin says gem jars and lids accounted for about 10 percent of last year’s sales. An entrepreneur or rural community might profit by producing 78mm gem jar lids, with Michigan firms studying demand and Prairie locations favored for labor and shipping. Bernardin promotes continued use of 70mm and 86mm jars. Web link provided.
