Voice of America wrote an extensive piece on Unionwear, highlighting how American manufacturers have fared during Covid and the ongoing supply chain crisis.

As China’s COVID-containment lockdowns stall goods en route to price-conscious U.S. consumers, New Jersey manufacturer Mitch Cahn is finding traces of gold in the snapped links of the global supply chain.

Eleven miles from Manhattan, business is surging at Cahn’s textile company, which boasts a 100% local supply chain.
