The five questions we asked

Every company in this cell is measured on the same questions, written the way a buyer would type them. That is what makes the ranking a comparison rather than a collection of anecdotes.

1“Best packaging machinery companies in Wisconsin”
2“Who supplies automatic case packing machines in Wisconsin”
3“I need a Wisconsin packaging machinery partner for a new high-speed food packaging line, who should I talk to”
4“Top packaging machinery suppliers in Wisconsin for food and beverage plant buyers”
5“Which Wisconsin packaging machinery manufacturers can integrate fully automated end-of-line systems”
6“List 20 packaging machinery companies in Wisconsin with their specialties.”the roster question

Each question is asked more than once, which is why a company's score is out of 15 answers rather than out of the number of questions.
