Sitting quietly in the Ozark Mountain region of South Central Missouri, on the outskirts of the Mark Twain National Forest and near the Jacks Fork and Current Rivers is an aerospace company, Eminence Manufacturing Inc. (EMI). EMI was established in December 2000 with only two employees. There are currently 17 employees with the company. EMI is a precision machine shop that supplies parts to the Aerospace Industry in the United States and Canada. EMI supplies helicopter parts primarily to the Department of Defense through The Boeing Corporation, Sikorsky, and other suppliers along with exporting some military components to Israel and Canada. EMI’s commitment to the military is strong including our employment of veterans. In 2006, as a young company, EMI began to receive recognition for their dedication to quality and delivery. EMI received the GKN Aerospace Jet Stream Award on February 17, 2006, for performance and quality on the CH47 Chinook program. Later that same year the company was nominated for the top performing supplier award for GKN Corporations—based in London. In 2008 EMI began to deliver CH47 parts directly to Boeing. Then in 2009 and 2010 EMI was named one of the top 400 Boeing Suppliers of the year. Just passing its 20th year in business, EMI continues to proudly support the United States Military from their spot in the Missouri Ozarks with quality, precision parts.
