West Michigan horticultural firm a global success story

MasterTag is a third generation, family-owned business that began by making the ubiquitous red and white fishing bobbers almost 60 years ago. 

Now, they are one of the leading manufacturers of signage, labels and tags, as well as one of the leading educators in gardening in the horticultural industry.

The firm, located in Montague, MI, has a permanent staff of 160 individuals, and cording to Tina Zellman, HR director, there have been two new positions created to support MasterTag's growth. "We have added two jobs since February 2012 -- director of manufacturing and distribution, and a marketing consultant."

Zellman indicates that MasterTag services a global customer base and recently has been focused on developing and delivering content for a variety of educational initiatives through its division, mygardeninsider.com.
