The Tip is 'Email for list' I had always purchased a foreign made tennis shoe. However, after reading the Big Secret I changed. One day I needed a new pair and wondered if there were any tennis shoes Made In USA. I found a major brand that made theirs in the US. They do not make all of their shoes here but several options were available that have the Made In USA label. I looked around for awhile on the internet and could not find any reference that would help me find where to buy them. I then visited there website and emailed for a list of their Made In USA tennis shoes. A short time later I had a list. With the list in hand visited my local retailer. They carried the model I was interested in and now I have some Made In USA tennis shoes. They fit better than my foreign brand and I feel better wearing them. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Vermont Bowl We are a privately owned company located in Wilmington Vermont. With very few exceptions all the products which you will find on offer in our website are manufactured right here in our own facility. Our craftspeople are both men and women, young and old, with the longest serving having been with the company for over 30 years. We have been producing fine wood products since 1967 when John McLeod first started in a borrowed workshop just months after emigrating from Scotland. John worked for a number of years as an individual craftsman. The business went through all the traditional stages of borrowed workshops, house basements, tiny converted gas stations and property purchases finally followed by five factory extensions and the development of two attached retail stores. No other company produces a range of wooden bowls in production quantities to equal that of The Vermont Bowl Company. Because of our earlier years of individual craftsmanship a tradition of standards was imbued into the company which has translated into a reputation for quality and integrity in company policy and in product which is the envy of the industry. VP Tommy Fox has been with the company for over 30 years. Tommy is a partner in the firm with John and it is with Tommy that the future of the company lies. Tommy and John collaborate in a number of areas such as design and future planning but Tommy has complete responsibility for the day-to-day operation of the company. Come visit our retail stores in Wilmington Vermont and you will find many items, including items for the home & office which are not included on our website. And a fabulous time of year to visit us is during our annual July 4th weekend or Columbus Day weekend Seconds and Overruns Sale. See you there! |
