Nike
As previously noted, Nike has a huge number of manufacturing facilities located outside of the United States. According to reports, China manufactures one pair for every five! Contracts with 180 manufacturers spread around the country have resulted in the employment of over 210,000 people in the athletic clothing industry. As a result, in terms of Nike manufacturing, only Vietnam beats the United States. Furthermore, the company outsources production to Brazil, Japan, Sri Lanka, and Indonesia. Nike, on the other hand, has been working hard to reduce its reliance on Chinese labor. In 2012, one out of every three couples was created, but that proportion has since dropped to one out of every five. Nike, on the other hand, has never explained why this is the case.
Levi’s
If you want to stock up on denim clothes, go no further than Levi’s Jeans. The company’s annual net revenues are $5.76 billion. As the consumer base evolved away from blue-collar workers and toward other industries in the 1960s, the company’s products became fashionable. The corporation went public in the early 1970s. It has now grown to operate in over 50 countries around the world. Every product on this website was created and manufactured outside of the United States. The 501 Jeans, on the other hand, are still manufactured in a North Carolina mill.
