Proud to be an American? Show your love and support for the USA on Made In The USA Day - shop local and celebrate all things made in America!
On July 2, it's time to get patriotic and celebrate Made In The USA Day! This special day was created in 2002 to recognize the hard-working Americans whose efforts have helped create products that are made right here at home. It also serves as a reminder of the importance of buying American-made goods whenever possible, as this helps support our economy and keep jobs in our own country.
