Power-Packed Product Line: Focus on B-to-B Merchandising

Direct Sourcing Advantage

Several years ago Galeton did its own manufacturing in the United States, and the company operated its own factories filled with sewing machines. But as was the case for many U.S. manufacturers, it became less costly to have the job done overseas. That trend, in and of itself, isn’t unique, says Mis, noting that many companies source overseas today using an agent. “But we don’t use an agent. We do all our own negotiating with the factories. We don’t use a middleman,” he notes.
