WHY WE CHOOSE TO BE MADE IN THE USA

Made in America is not only a patriotic rally cry but it is good business even for startups. While most fitness apparel is made in large factories overseas, Devigi manufactures it’s women’s active wear in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Made in the USA is not only about providing jobs, reducing the environmental impact of transportation, and improving the local economy but also about the speed and agility of production and working with a loyal partner instead of simply a supplier.

For fitness apparel companies that manufacture overseas, their production plans, designs, fabrics, and technical packs have to be ready seasons in advance of the garments displayed in store windows. With local production in Philadelphia , Devigi is not faced with long overseas transport. If issues arise, we meet face to face with our production team to evaluate options and solutions. Having a local production team right here in Philadelphia means they care. When storms delayed fabric delivery, the production group worked extra hours to meet a delivery deadline. When a deadline was missed, the owner of the factory delivered product to our pop-up shop. Devigi manufactures in America because it is a better business option. While production in China may have a lower cost per item, production in America means we can meet face to face with suppliers, they are flexible to meet our business needs, they consult when issues arise, and most importantly they care about Devigi’s success. By manufacturing locally, Devigi as a team of partners as opposed to a list of suppliers.

Hopefully more businesses and entrepreneurs will realize all the benefits of doing business locally and will commit to production in the USA.  Manufacturing in America and buying American is good for everyone. Check out our women’s active wear apparel line today!
