At the ceremony, former U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta noted, "Around Alabama, your companies, big and small alike, are leading the state's economic expansion and manufacturing boom."

In 2006, manufacturers in Alabama produced a total real output of nearly $28.3 billion, and employed 302,000 residents.
Alabama income varies widely, based on a worker's education and experience. Entry-level accountants in Birmingham make $42,200 on average, according to Salary.com.
