American Apparel ... made in Nicaragua and Honduras

Friday, April 7, 2017


For the first time in American Apparel’s 28-year history, its items are being made outside the US. The company, which prided itself on being the largest domestic apparel maker, is now producing shirts in Honduras and Nicaragua, a person familiar with the matter said.
 
Gildan Activewear, which bought American Apparel out of Chapter 11 earlier this year, later confirmed the Central American production — and said that labels denoting “Made in Honduras” and “Made in Nicaragua” will start appearing on its clothes this summer.
