Here's to American Made

Below are a selection of companies and organizations who focus on creating American Made goods, just like us.





The Makers Coalition

The Makers Coalition, the brainchild of Jen Guarino, is a movement to restore and build the industrial sewing heritage of America. The movement comes amid a re-shoring trend and renaissance in American-made goods, but a sharp decline of skilled workers or programs to train them in recent years. More than 30 member businesses, non-profits and educational institutions are working together to find, train and employ a proud, creative and skilled cut-and-sew workforce for today and for future generations.

Industry demand meets need for skills training: Minneapolis-based Dunwoody College of Technology developed an industrial Sewing and Production Specialist certificate program with the coalition, to ensure each student receives the necessary skills and training to begin working in a variety of industries from apparel and leather goods to canvas work, signs and banners. Curriculum development and several student scholarships were made possible by an initial grant of $75,000 to Lifetrack Resources from the Greater Twin Cities United Way’s WINGS Giving Community.
