The Tip is 'Keep eyes open' After reading an article about items made in America I thought about how many times I make purchases without thinking. I'm usually focused on budget and needs. Prior to reading this article on made in the USA products, I rarely thought about the importance of buying made in USA products. This helps create jobs in our country. Now I keep my eyes open and I am surprised how easy it is to find American products. It only takes a few seconds to look. Now I make a point when I am shopping to search for made in America brands. By doing so, I'm able to identify more and more what products are made in America. Even with my eyes open to made in USA I can get discouraged. Sometimes store clerks don't know the country of origin which can be frustrating. If this happens use your eyes to find the origin information yourself. Look at the labels and when you find a Made in USA product tell the clerk so the next time they are asked they will know. Also, when the label is not easily seen I use the other made in America buying tips to help me find made in USA. If the store doesn't carry what you are looking for, use Made in America Secrets to find it and tell the manager about your experience at their store. When enough people are asking for made in the USA products, more stores will begin to carry products that are made here. This technique does work. I also pick and choose the stores I visit. I do this because I have found that some stores are made in America friendly while others are not. Keep your eyes open for the made in USA label and pretty soon you will be able to identify which products are made in the USA. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Bullhide Belts Our mission is to support USA families and jobs by producing high-quality leather goods in the USA at an affordable price. By keeping our production in the USA we provide jobs and a tax base that supports our communities. Eric Moore Eric D. Moore Founder The Birth of an American Company: Bullhide Belts was founded in 2007, by owner Eric Moore. He was looking for a belt that was a better quality leather than anything you could find in stores. The first belt designed was a black grooved edge bullhide belt, that has become one of the best selling belts in company history. Soon after we introduced the grooved bullhide belts in rich brown and natural colors. Bullhide Belts first started selling their belts at local trade shows to showcase their quality and build a customer base. Soon after in 2010, we opened our website store and started shipping our belts all over America. The success of the website led to more belts being designed such as the money belts, dress leather belts, shark, and double prong belts. We quickly expanded our product line the first 3 years and now offer hundreds of different belts, wallets, and leather goods to choose from. As customer demand grew, we have expanded our operation and built a state of the art leather shop in early 2013 to keep up with demand and our fast turnaround times. There are now two leather shops located in Indiana and our main offices are in Ohio, which currently employ 13 US workers. This allow us to build a quality custom made product and deliver it to your door in about a weeks time (compared to 30 days with other companies). Bullhide Belts is continuing to expand and showcase their products on national TV, radio, and magazines. In a short amount of time, we have grown to become one of America's largest belt manufactures on the principle of making quality leather goods at reasonable prices. |
