“Exlar Corporation and I have been working with ITW Heartland since we were a small start-up company with just two employees. Now, with well over 100 employees, I can say that a large part of Exlar’s success has been due to the support and professionalism of the people at ITW Heartland. I believe Exlar would not be where we are today without the partnership we have enjoyed with ITW Heartland.”Bernard Raidt
