On Thursday, Ron Roach, president of Contempora Fabrics, Lumberton, N.C., and Steve Hawkins, president of America Knits, LLC, Swainsboro, Ga., shared with me some exciting news – that their companies have forged a strategic partnership involving an equity stake. They said the agreement represents more than just a business venture – it’s a commitment to strengthening American manufacturing, creating jobs and revitalizing local economies. By leveraging their expertise, industry connections and shared commitment to quality and sustainability, they are not only generating new business opportunities but also reinforcing the importance of local supply chains. With a growing demand for ethically made, American-produced goods, this collaboration sets a powerful example of how alliances can drive innovation, economic growth and job creation in the U.S. textile and apparel industry.
Bravo, Ron, Steve and your teams! You’re a shining example of how our industry can work together to make good things happen. Click on the link below to read more about this partnership.
