I have worked in project management/product development projects for many products which need injection molding and blow molding. Now the COO of a US injection molding company.

I see a big shift in bringing tooling back from China to the US and Mexico. If Trump gets elected, that will increase at a faster rate, if he doesn't, it will continue to grow.

I would also be interested in developing relationships with manufacturers in Mexico, as some US pricing can't bridge the cost gap of bringing work back to North America.

In addition, there are needs from material availability and material distribution networks. In a few of my projects, we hit unnecessary roadblocks where typical materials were difficult to get in Mexico.
