Jet Edge, Inc. was honored by Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton, who presented the St. Michael, Minn. waterjet manufacturer with a 27th Annual Governor’s International Trade Award during a ceremony in Minneapolis.

Each year, Minnesota’s governor honors a select group of Minnesota businesses that have shown exceptional progress and success in international trade by conferring the Governor’s International Trade Award. In addition to honoring individual recipients, the award also recognizes the tremendous positive effect that exports and trade have on the state’s economy and job growth.

Jet Edge Marketing Manager Nancy Lauseng accepted the award from Gov. Dayton on Jet Edge’s behalf.

“We are truly honored to be recognized by Governor Dayton for our international business efforts,” Lauseng said. “During the past several years, Jet Edge has worked tirelessly to increase our international sales and enter new markets, including Asia, Eastern Europe and the Middle East. We have benefitted tremendously through our participation in Governor’s trade missions to Japan, China and Israel, and through the outstanding support of the Minnesota Trade Office and U.S. Commercial Service.”
