America in Bloom
Made in the U.S.A.
-- Home Accents Today, 3/1/2010 12:00:00 AM
What encourages retailers to spring for products made in the USA? Sources tell Home Accents Today the cause and effect of buying American-made products and preserving a neighbor's job becomes even more important in troubled economic times. Domestic production also lends retailers nimble buying power with quicker turnaround times and often smaller minimum orders. And with American-made choices like these, why hesitate? Laid-back styles and cool colors come across like a dish of sherbet on a perfect spring day. — Angela Heck
