The Tip is 'Manufacturer's sites' I recently ran out of my favorite pancake syrup. I loved the brand we had been using but when I went to the grocery store, I couldn't find it. The syrup was made in Indiana and I was living in Florida at the time. I tried unsuccessfully to find it on an internet. The manufacturer is small and their products are not readily available so I thought I would try their website. They did, in fact, have their own internet store so I ordered it directly from them. Now, I always buy their made in USA maple syrup from their website and never run out. Made in America Secrets has thousands of made in USA products offered by hundreds of small manufacturers. These small Made in America companies are a large contributor to our economy. In fact, according to the 2008 US Census Bureau small businesses, those employing 1 to 99 employees comprise 98% of all the USA businesses. This is equivalent to 5.8 million businesses that employee 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. Use this web site to for a list of products made in the US- especially since it is likely that a small US manufacturer employs someone you know- your husband, wife, children, or grandchildren. When using Google to search for Made in America products often times these small made in the United States businesses never show up on page one- and most folks don't look past page one. What does this mean? The consumer has a difficult time locating that US made product. Made in America Secrets was conceived to provide a solution to that problem. As an example search for motorcycles Made in America using Google and you will likely miss many of the companies that make this country great. Use Made in America Secrets for the search and you will likely find a hidden jewel. 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. |
