Questions? We have answers!
Does my product qualify?
Products must be made in Iowa. The manufacturers' headquarters does not need to be in Iowa. Products must be made using a manufacturing process. For example, a pizza made at a resturant would not qualify, but a frozen pizza mass produced by a plant would.
Who can make a nomination?
All are encouraged to nominate their favorite Iowa-made products. Self-nomination is strongly encouraged. (ABI staff members are excluded from nominating). There is no limit to the number of product nominations per person or per manufacturer.
How will a company know I nominated something it makes?
Companies with products nominated for Coolest Thing Made in Iowa will be notified by ABI.
Can a company have multiple products in the competition?
Yes, but only one product per company can make it into the Top Sixteen.
