What Kent County's business mix suggests for your request

County Business Patterns counted 17,799 business establishments in Kent County in 2023. Of those, 1,113 were in manufacturing (the 4th highest count among Michigan's 83 counties), 1,610 in construction (4th), 1,069 in wholesale trade, and 539 in transportation and warehousing.

For a plant or warehouse, start with the sit-down counterbalance guide, or the reach truck where racking is tall and aisles are narrow.

For building sites, compare a rough terrain forklift with a telehandler based on how far out the load has to go.

These counts describe the county's business mix. They do not show machine availability, which we confirm when we get back to you.
