Today’s fabric industry is focused in production of mass produced garments that suit the price conscious, trend following consumers’ demand. Outsourcing of production is the in-thing regardless what’s the industry and this has had a visible effect on many local businesses.

Great video with great look into factory that still maintains old production values and attention to quality. As Greenfield nicely puts it, “quality with intrinsic value will always keep you in business.”
