[QUOTE="kirbysthebest, post: 357095, member: 279"] [b]Labeling [/b] The contention that FTC had with Tacony, and any manufacturer that states "Made in America" is that a certain percentage has to be Made in America. If it is "made" with "globally sourced parts" then it is actually "Assembled in America" or in the case of the Moxie and Prima Disassembled and Reassembled in America. " As discussed, unqualified “Made in USA” or “Built in USA” claims likely suggest to consumers that products are “all or virtually all” made in the United States. The Commission may analyze a number of different factors to determine whether a product is “all or virtually all” made in the United States, including the proportion of the product’s total manufacturing costs attributable to U.S. parts and processing, how far removed any foreign content is from the finished product, and the importance of the foreign content or processing to the overall function of the product."
