Appleton's Pierce Manufacturing was featured at the White House Monday as part of President Trump's "Made in America" event.

Each state was invited to show off a product made in its state. The fire truck manufacturer had a truck on site for President Trump to tour.

The company said the high profile visit will highlight Pierce's longevity, as well as its dedication to Northeast Wisconsin.
