More than 100 products threw their proverbial hat into the ring to be crowned the “Coolest Thing Made in Minnesota” and now only eight products remain.
Last week, voters decided Spam, a folding bow saw from Sven-Saw and a Minnetronix Medical device that tests for concussions weren’t among the best the state has to offer, making for even stiffer competition this week.
The competition, hosted by the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce and BMO Bank, pits products against each other each week in a head-to-head format, with the public voting to decide which product is deserving of the title.
This week voters will determine the final four from these matchups:
Sugar from the American Crystal Sugar Co. versus Action Trackchair, an all-terrain wheelchair, from Action Manufacturing
JonnyPops’ frozen Rainbow Fruit Stacks versus Floating wetland islands from Midwest Floating Island
The leather Beckman boot from Red Wing Shoe Co. versus Industrial 3D printer from Stratasys
A new snowmobile from Arctic Cat versus Scotch Magic Tape from 3M
The top four products will be revealed Sept. 30 and voting is open to the public until Oct. 4.
The winner and titular “Coolest Thing Made in Minnesota” will be announced Oct. 8 at the 2024 Manufacturer’s Summit.
