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 Gourmet Body Treats Gourmet Body Treats was founded in 1998 by Waleska Agosto for one very simple reason. She had a sensitive skin condition called Rosacea and was unable to use any kind of beauty product. Frustrated and tired of skin irritations and complications caused by chemical-filled beauty products, she began making her own. Using her knowledge of herbs gained from her parents and grandmother. Today Gourmet Body Treats has grown quite a bit. We're still a family owned business that continues to make products the old fashion way - one small batch at a time. To ensure the highest quality possible Gourmet Body Treats only uses wildcrafted or organically grown raw materials. Every product is made by hand from start to finish including the packaging and labeling of each product. Every product is 100% vegan, never tested on animals, and has no negative environmental impact. Gourmet Body Treats has one simple goal ? create effective skincare and cosmetics without harming the environment and helping your skin. Our Mission is to use our business to effect positive change in this world. Our Mission! Everything you want to know about us. Gourmet Body Treats is dedicated to the same principles our company was founded on almost 10 years ago. 1. Always be natural and organic. 2. Always source ingredients from local farmers whenever possible. We work with small family farms, and the majority of our ingredients come from Texas. We visit our farms regularly, and have a great relationship with them! That means ingredients are fresher & the product is better as a result. Many of them can't afford the USDA Organic Certification, and our packaging reflects that, but please know that all of our ingredients are the highest quality available! 3. Always remain Vegan, and never test on animals. Not everyone who works for us is vegan, but a love of animals is a requirement. With that said, although things like honey, and certain colors derived from beetle shells are great, we don't use them. There are billions of plant types in the world, and all of them has a purpose. Why use an ingredient that might hurt an animal or bug when you don't have to! In addition to this we never test on animals. Volunteer is one of our most prized positions here at Gourmet Body Treats, and we have people clamoring for a chance to try our newest products! 4. Always consider the Earth. From our manufacturing facility to our retail locations. Green is good! We use glass, or BPA-FREE plastics, that are all recyclable, and encourage our customers to send their bottle back to us, to be cleaned, sterilized, and re-purposed. 5. Always treat our customers like family, because we're a family owned business. Our goal is to convey to you how much we care about what we do, and for you to be a part of it. While we can't always get to the phone, we will always answer your emails. We're a small company (about 12 people work here year round), so please be patient with us! Thanks for being such great customers, Waleska Agosto Owner / Product Development www.GourmetBodyTreats.com |
