Samuel L. Jackson wants you to help create manufacturing jobs in the United States
Another supply chain gap filled! Bollman Hats to reshore from China, with the return of new/old equipment.
Thanks to a successful kickstarter campaign, Bollman Hats was able to raise enough money to ship 80 additional knitting machines from China to the United States. As a result, Bollmann Hats will add 41 jobs to their plant in Adamstown, Pennsylvania by April 2016 to make their famous Kangol hats here in the U.S.
Next question: Will the Kangol hats also be made with American wool?
