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.
