4 Reasons You Should Buy American-Made

While you are celebrating America’s Independence this Fourth of July, make sure you also celebrate by purchasing American-made products! We want to explain the top four reasons why it is important to purchase American-made or grown products whenever you can.

Supporting Better Labor Standards
Many countries provide cheap products because they use cheap labor. This stems from a lack of labor laws where there are no minimum wage restrictions. This lack of labor laws also allows for trafficking, slavery, child labor, or dangerous working conditions. While this is not true for all products made overseas, it is difficult for companies to highly monitor their manufacturers, especially when they are in a different country.

Supporting a Better World
Along with having lenient labor laws, many of the countries where companies manufacture their goods also have more lenient environmental laws. The United States has multiple environmental regulations, such as the Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act which requires businesses to take responsibility for their waste and pollution creation. Also, when you buy products in America they have less of a distance to travel which, in return, leaves less of a carbon footprint. By purchasing American products you are supporting a better world for future generations.

Supporting America’s Economy
There is currently a huge trade deficit in America due to a large amount of consumption of goods from other countries such as China. When you support an American company the entire American economy benefits. Supporting an American company creates more job positions for that company to fill and allows them to employ and work with other American companies. This ultimately creates a ripple effect throughout the entire economy.

Getting Quality Products
When an American company manufactures their goods in America, they are able to be more hands-on with the process and, in turn, have more control over the quality of their goods. This allows them to deliver top-tier products to their customers that are made with love and passion!
