King Athletics specializes in hoodie sweatshirts and also makes T-shirts, shorts, sweatpants and other apparel. The items are typically sold through wholesale distributors to schools, sports teams and corporations, with the organization’s logo printed on the garment. Most of us have these kinds of items in our closets, but how many of them are truly made in Canada?
“Manufacturing in Canada is our niche,” says Phong Vu, King Athletics’ owner and president. “Many of our distributors started carrying us at first because we are made in Canada — almost everyone else is manufacturing overseas. When you hear about clothing manufacturers you automatically think that the product is being made in China.”
The concept of buying “Made in Canada” products is more popular than ever — many of us want to support Canadian employers while having the peace of mind that the goods we buy are produced in an ethical way.
