The country of origin or the made in label influences consumers' attitudes, perceptions and purchasing decisions. It triggers a global evaluation of the quality, performance or specific product attributes.
Many brands stake their reputations in the country of origin. But in a globalized world, where materials come from different parts and are assembled in many places, how much can a single country of origin really tell you?
Most people still like to believe that the label says made in the US is entirely made in the US, however, that's oftentimes not the case. It just means that the majority of the parts were actually made or assembled in the US.
Sometimes, sales clerks and staff don't know much about the supply chains of the brands they sell. And because of that, they can't really tell you where something is made in its entirety. So obviously, there are different rules of what you can and can't say on labels.
What does the Made In label mean in the US? The Federal Trade Commission, also known as FTC requires that you don't just have the country of origin but also the fiber content as well as wash instructions and the manufacturer or brand label. That being said, those labeling requirements do not apply until the product goes to sale to the consumer.
Both at Fort Belvedere and Gentlemens Gazette, we firmly believe in quality and because of that, that's what we strive for. We also believe that a high-quality product can be made anywhere in the world and so we try to get a really high-quality product at a fair price.
In a nutshell, what can a country of origin tell you? The answer is: not much. Maybe it can give you a hint about the quality and where it was made but it's not always true and it really just gives you a small glimpse into what actually happened. So ideally, always talk to the brands to buy from, understand what they do, whether stuff is coming from, how it's made, and don't just look at the origin label.
