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 American Spirit Candle The American Spirit Candle Company has been in business over 12 years. The company was established by our son who, in the true spirit of a salesman, convinced his own mother to become his saleswoman! Reluctant at first, I started with a single case to try my luck and sold out in an hour! I continued selling case after case and when customers began seeking me out for replacements, I realized just how much our product stood out from the rest. In 2003, our son got out of the candle business so we decided to start our own candle bu company. For a while, it was just my husband and myself manufacturing and selling our products. As our company grew our, daughter joined us, and to make it a true family business our son returned to sell for us in 20076. We pride ourselves on making the highest quality products and have been rewarded for this ideal as our company has continued to grow each year. Why American Spirit Candle Company? We believe that only in America, can a retired couple create a business and succeed at it. Our Country was built on the American Spirit and we believe that we are truly living the American Dream!
