The Tip is 'Labeling Tip 1' Know Your Labeling - For products Made in America, the greater the US content the more American jobs required to produce it. So whenever possible choose the product with the highest percentage of U.S.content. US content must be disclosedon Made in USA textiles, automobiles, wool, and fur products. There is no law requiringmost other products to be marked or labeled made in USA, or, have any otherdisclosure about their amount of U.S. content. Those manufacturers and marketers who choose to make claims about the amount of U.S. content must comply with the FTC's Made in USA policy. Note: Imported products must have the country of origin on their label whileproducts partially Made in USA do not. For a product produced in the U.S. to be labeled made in USA, or claimed to beof domestic origin without qualifications or limits on the claim, the product must be all or virtually all made in the U.S. This would mean that all significant parts and processing that go into the product are of U.S. origin. The product should contain no (or negligible) foreign content. Made in the USA products create the greatest number of American jobs for our country. This is because the labor to produce the product, and the raw materials that go into the product, are created with American labor. For most products, there is no law requiring made in America labels, or any other disclosure about the amount of U.S. content. However, for job creation purposes if you have a choice between an imported product and one with no country of origin on the label, choose the product without a country of origin over the imported one. The product without the country origin on its label has some American labor in its content and the imported one most likely does not. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Vintage Crush OK, OK? I'll admit it! We have a crush on wine! We love everything about it from grape to glass! The walk in the vines. The grapes. The crush. The swish. The smell. The flavor. The barrel. The bottle. The cork. The label. The romance of it all! We love that wine is alive. It brings joy when shared with friends and soul to a conversation. My Vintage Crush is a family business. Our wine related products are unique, functional and eco-friendly. Retired wine barrels and used corks that would normally get thrown away are repurposed and turned into wine art that has history, just as each bottle of wine has its own history. It's good for the earth and good for the soul. So along with my husband who is my web designer, a very talented Guitarist, techno geek and my best friend, and my daughter who is my budding wine connoisseur, we created My Vintage Crush. Thank you so much for stopping by and sharing our crush on wine! Be Blessed! Maryann Houde American Products by American Craftsman & Women |
