With developments in several key
areas, Champion is solidifying its
position in the marketplace and ably
preparing for the future. Mike says
the company has made
achievements in three key areas.
"We have better management
control; we have improved
technology through CAD -CAM and
new equipment and we are conscious
of quality," he offered. "We have a

cost by 20 percent. We have even
kxceeded that in some cases."
While the company has taken steps
to improve its manufacturing
technology and capabilities, it has
alsci4ulfilled a goal through the
establkshment of its training and
development centre. Now, with its
own in-house training facility,
Champion can adequately meet its
skilled labour requirements.
Things are falling in to place for
Champion and Mike admits that with
success in the cost -reduction
department, coupled with a
commitment to quality, the
company will be successful.
"Right now we have a super
product, conscientious people and
we're a little more professional
about what we do," he said. "We
have become leaders in technology,
management control and quality.
Already our product is the best
product available in the marketplace
and that shouldn't stop. Now people
think Champion."
Mayor Eileen Palmer, MP Murray Cardiff, Employment Minister Flora
MacDonald, Warden Leona Armstrong and Mike and Mark Sully were
on hand for the opening of Champion's training centre.
