Grand Traverse Industries shipping products overseas

TRAVERSE CITY -- A new project for one area business could provide more jobs locally and allow them to expand throughout the world.

Grand Traverse Industries has just made their first shipment of SmileSaver disposable toothbrushes to Russia.

This is just the first of what the company expects to be a regular set of orders to be made that will create additional jobs for persons with disabilities in the Grand Traverse area who are employed by the company.

SmileSaver is looking into expanding to several other locations around the world. Currently they are close to a deal to distribute toothbrushes throughout the United Kingdom.
