State Support
“Georgia Made” isn’t just a label; it’s a relationship. Georgia is committed to helping our businesses succeed. We work closely with manufacturing companies to understand their needs and remove barriers, ensuring that prosperity benefits everyone. With the Governor’s leadership, all levels of government work together to provide support to Georgia Made companies. 

Access to Partnerships
With leading logistics, research, and educational institutions located throughout the state, the “Georgia Made” program provides opportunities for your business to connect with these organizations and explore partnership opportunities that positively impact your business model. 

Marketing & Promotion 
Upon certification, your company will be registered in the database of “Georgia Made” companies on our website and will receive usage rights of the “Georgia Made” logo on product, packaging and promotional materials. 

“Being able to label our products as ‘Georgia Made’ instills a sense of pride in our employees. Lots of people don’t know what Georgia brings to the table and this program gives us a reason and a platform to tell them. Our marketing arm can leverage it to our benefit and to the state’s.”
Phil Sutton, Vice President of Kubota Manufacturing of America

What does “Manufactured” Mean?

In order to become certified “Georgia Made,” your product must meet certain criteria. The term “manufactured” refers to a wide range of human activity used to create tangible or intangible goods, including product design, proprietary code, and engineering. It’s most commonly applied to industrial production, in which raw materials are transformed into finished goods for use or sale. Finished goods may also be component parts which may be incorporated into other products or goods. However, in order for a product to be eligible for certification, at least 50% of the final product must be manufactured in Georgia. This program excludes food and agricultural products, or other products eligible for designation under the Georgia Grown program.
