Intro:
In an effort to help boost American Manufacturers, The Coalition for Prosperous America (CPA) has partnered with BuyDirectUSA.com.
CPA is instrumental in giving a voice in Washington, DC to the more than 250,000 US manufacturers, most of whom are small family owned businesses. In total they represent some 4.1 million Americans in manufacturing, agricultural and labor. Even before Covid19, they worked steadfastly to ensure trade deals responsible for the decline of manufacturing in the US such as the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) are improved and beneficial to the US. Now, they are doubling up on their efforts to keep Americans working. Joining us is Jim Palmer, spokesman for BuyDirectUSA.
Q&A:
- Tell us about the new partnership and how it can help American manufacturers create U.S. jobs.
Answer: It’s a partnership that will be extremely beneficial to domestic manufacturers. While BuyDirectUSA takes care of growing and promoting their businesses, CPA will take care of protecting them from foreign trade cheaters that want them out of business. Together, it’s our goal to advocate for trade that promotes manufacturing, produces jobs, and increases incomes.
- Can you give us a quick successful U.S. business.
Answer: Yes. Small business owners like Sherrill manufacturing in NY who purchased a former Oneida plant that had been shuttered to move jobs to Mexico. They have worked hard to create the only flatware made in the USA known as Liberty Tabletop. Their employees take pride in creating quality flatware and they work hard to provide for their families.
- What is the relationship between consumers buying American and expanding U.S. jobs?
Answer: When Americans buy from U.S. manufacturers, it creates more American jobs. Our goal is to help US manufacturers in any capacity they need to remain viable and keep their workers employed.
- How long has BuyDirectUSA been around?
Answer: We launched in 1998, not long after the effects of NAFTA were being felt across the country and we’re excited to see the resurgence in American Manufacturing.
