The Tip is 'Made In America Secrets' We needed some new towels recently and I remembered coming across your website. I thought I would give it a quick search to see if there were any Made in America towels sold nearby. It just so happened that when I did the search, I found there was a nearby reseller listed who carried the particular Made in the USA towels I wanted. We bought the towels and, not surprisingly, they are both more absorbent and better looking than I thought. Made in America Secrets has thousands of products made in America offered by hundreds of small manufacturers. These small companies are a big contributor to our economy. According to one study small businesses (those employing 1 to 99 employees) comprise 98% of all the USA businesses. That's equivalent to 5.8 million businesses employing over 40 million people. Most American's are unaware of how significant small business is when compared to the total size of the US economy. This website is aware of it and that is why 99% of the businesses that advertise on Made in America Secrets are small businesses. I now use this site to search for small companies especially since more than likely it is a small company that employs someone I know- my wife, my children, my friends. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Vermont Woods Studios Founded in 2005, we are an online retailer of Vermont made wood furniture, and our web store showcases the finest of Vermont's furniture makers. Vermont has a long history of woodworking, over 200 years in fact. The region is abundant in the premium hardwoods that our craftsmen carefully select. This fine woodworking heritage plus plentiful high quality hardwoods are combined to create naturally beautiful, functional, and timeless wood furniture you will be proud to own. Green and local are not new ideas at Vermont Woods Studios. They are part of our ethos. We were born green with a mission of building a vibrant economy for furniture makers in Vermont. From the beginning, we've only worked with Vermont artisans and companies who use sustainably harvested wood and non-toxic finishes. Join us and feel good, not only about the quality of the furniture that you buy, but also about its impact on the world around us. Our mission has always focused on the triple bottom line: planet, people and profit Planet: Unlike other furniture companies, we avoid tropical woods that are often illegally harvested and destroy the rainforest at the mind-boggling rate of 1 football field per second. Instead, our wood is sourced right here in America. Maple from Vermont. Cherry from Pennsylvania. Walnut from Indiana. From recycling to shipping, we are focused on eco-friendly practices in every aspect of our business. Profit: We look at profit a little differently than other companies. Giving back is a central part of who we are. From the Nature Conservancy to the Vermont Center for Eco Studies, we regularly donate portions of our profit to organizations involved in forest and wildlife conservation. People: Here you'll never find a factory with poor working conditions or illegal labor practices. Instead, you'll find hard working and passionate people who want to bring you furniture that lasts a lifetime. How does Vermont Woods Studios choose what furniture to offer? Above all is our quality and craftsmanship criteria as all of the furniture we offer is backed by a lifetime guarantee. Furniture is selected that best represents the natural Vermont made style. We also seek furniture makers who use green production processes and participate in forest sustainability. All of the furniture we offer is produced in Vermont. It is where we live and work and what we know. And we are within a 3 hours drive to any of our furniture makers. Learn more about our sustainable Vermont made furniture here. Still have questions?
