A manufacturing company is any business that uses components, parts, or raw materials to make a finished good. If I want to give a piece of an idea, the manufacturing company examples would be; The Ford Motor Company Ford is one of the largest U.S. based automakers and has been manufacturing vehicles on a large scale since the early 1900s. This company can easily make over five million cars in a single year! These company assembly lines are a great visual for what a manufacturing company does.
