Made in Utah

Whether they know it or not, Utah consumers are part of an invisible network that links them to hundreds of producers, manufacturers, and employees across the state. With the Made in Utah campaign, we want to help Utahns recognize the positive impact they have when they support locally owned businesses—and celebrate the quality of products and experiences available within the state.
