Related: About this forumABC News: Americans Answer Call to Action and Buy US Made Holiday Gifts
This month we were honored to be featured on ABC World News (you can watch it here). This created a tremendous amount of attention for our company and the U.S. apparel industry. This was both a good thing and a challenge... We were able to hire more people to help with the work load and we were able to get most of your orders out by Christmas. But to be completely honest, the flood of support for USA Made that came from this feature did overwhelm us. Unfortunately, we cannot change the manufacturing process and train enough customer service people to go from several thousand requests per week to tens-of-thousands of requests in a matter of days. So, we would like to apologize to those that experienced a delay in service or backorder issue; your patience and understanding during this time is very appreciated!
Once again, we would like to thank you for another great year and we look forward to an even better 2014!
Merry Christmas to you and your family
David Muir and the ABC World News made in America team are at it again with their made in America Christmas segments as thousands of Americans have already said they are in & ready to buy American made gifts. It`s the Christmas season & just one thing could help create thousands of new jobs right here at home as ABC World News reports that $64 spent on a USA Made item by each American can create over 200,000 new jobs and wish American workers a merry Christmas.
Clothing is just one theme with Christmas gifts each and every year, but did you know that 98% of the world`s clothing is NOT made in America? ABC World News reports that just 2% of the world`s clothing is made in America.
The All American Clothing Co. is part of that 2%. The USA made blue jean manufacturer is one of the few remaining USA made clothing companies left in America today. All American Clothing Co. was recently featured on the Made in America segment with ABC World News with Diane Sawyer (Dec. 6) as David Muir traced a pair of jeans back to the American farmer who grew the cotton with All American Clothing`s Traceability Technology.
About All American Clothing Co:
Founded in 2002 by Lawson & BJ Nickol due to a previous employer`s decision to outsource jeans and jobs to Mexico, the father and son team started the All American Clothing Co A USA made jean company of their own that vows to never trade USA jobs for foreign profits. The father son duo and their All American Clothing Co. has been featured on ABC World News with Diane Sawyer, CNN Living, Huffington Post, Fox Business, CNBC, Sirius XM, Forbes, Inc., and many more.
About Traceability Technology:
Traceability is all about the truth of where jeans come from. It offers some recognition to the hard working Americans who are involved in making jeans. All American Clothing Co. is the first jean company in the world that gives it`s consumers the opportunity to trace a pair of jeans back to the American farmers who grew the cotton used in their jean. The system supports over 12,000 American farmers & workers across the country.
