98% of our high quality bedding is produced in our U.S. facility located in Historic Petersburg Virginia. While most of the infant product industry has moved its production overseas to take advantage of low labor costs and generally cheaper production costs, we continue to have over 98% of our bedding collections made in the United States, and since 1977, we have increased our manufacturing jobs by 78%. We at Glenna Jean are proud to provide jobs to the U.S. workforce, and are proud of our well educated, high quality associates who can compete with anyone in the world. Through their hard work, we are able to make many of our bedding sets in the United States despite the competition from lower cost imports.

Unfortunately, we are not able to obtain all materials and components that are needed for these collections in the United States. In some cases, they are simply not available. In other situations, economic and quality considerations dictate foreign sourcing. However, Glenna Jean remains committed to providing jobs for American workers and to supporting domestic manufacturers and suppliers where possible.

 

The Federal Trade Commission has attempted to determine what it means to say a product is "made in" the United States. While this seems like a simple question, the answer is not always obvious given the global nature of the economy. We believe most consumers think "Made in USA" means that real manufacturing jobs were provided to U.S. workers in order to make that product. The bedding produced in our U.S. facility is made by U.S. workers using both U.S. and imported materials. Where the level of domestic value is at least 70%, we have labeled the Bedding "Made in USA." Where it falls below that level, we have qualified it as containing both domestic and imported materials. This determination is based in part on a survey of consumers conducted by the FTC. The Federal Trade Commission's analysis of the Made in USA issue can be found on the Internet at FTC's web site www.ftc.gov

Glenna Jean has proven that high quality, infant products can be made by Americans for discriminating consumers.

We are proud of this fact.
