Native American heritage
Shelby Twp., MI, April 15, 2009—Elite
Mold & Engineering, Inc., a trusted provider of
quality plastic injection molds and molded
products, received its Minority Certification

certification as a privately held Michigan-based
company with at least 51% ownership represented
by a documented Native American.

low-volume injection molding of high quality
plastic parts used in several industries,
including the automotive, consumer products,
military and medical molding. Elite serves OEMs

in business, Robert learned of his Native
American heritage and joined the tribe of Little
River Band of Ottawa Indians.
"As a certified minority-owned business, Elite
is able to compete for work and opportunities
specifically designated for minority businesses,
ultimately helping to expand our reach to new
markets," said Joe Mandeville, President of
