The Tip is 'Labeling Tip 1' Know Your Labeling - For products Made in America, the greater the US content the more American jobs required to produce it. So whenever possible choose the product with the highest percentage of U.S.content. US content must be disclosedon Made in USA textiles, automobiles, wool, and fur products. There is no law requiringmost other products to be marked or labeled made in USA, or, have any otherdisclosure about their amount of U.S. content. Those manufacturers and marketers who choose to make claims about the amount of U.S. content must comply with the FTC's Made in USA policy. Note: Imported products must have the country of origin on their label whileproducts partially Made in USA do not. For a product produced in the U.S. to be labeled made in USA, or claimed to beof domestic origin without qualifications or limits on the claim, the product must be all or virtually all made in the U.S. This would mean that all significant parts and processing that go into the product are of U.S. origin. The product should contain no (or negligible) foreign content. Made in the USA products create the greatest number of American jobs for our country. This is because the labor to produce the product, and the raw materials that go into the product, are created with American labor. For most products, there is no law requiring made in America labels, or any other disclosure about the amount of U.S. content. However, for job creation purposes if you have a choice between an imported product and one with no country of origin on the label, choose the product without a country of origin over the imported one. The product without the country origin on its label has some American labor in its content and the imported one most likely does not. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Happi Nappi Happi-Pocket started 18 years ago in Memphis, Tennessee. Cynthia Talley left a Fortune 500 Company to be able to stay home with her children. Needing to go back to work, she became a substitute teacher in the Memphis City School System. During this time, she was starting to develop the Happi-Nappi Nap Bag in her spare time. Several of the teachers used chair bags that parents had made for their students. Having been home sewn, the bags were not holding up very well. Since Cynthia sewed, she took several home to be repaired. As word spread of the repairs, several more appeared. The teachers told her she needed to start making chair bags while she was making the Happi-Nappi Nap Bag. As she sold the Happi-Nappi Nap Bag, child care directors suggested she start manufacturing quality cot and mat sheets. Discovering the market for sheets had a lot to be desired, she started making the sheets. The chair bag developed into the Happi-Pocket and the rest is history.... A few years later, the factory is in place shipping across the USA. Every day is looked at as a new learning experience. If someone makes a suggestion, we listen. We continue to listen. That's the only way to grow!! We are a business that continues to grow throughout the years.

These items make things easier for everyone. After listening to parents and teachers for several years, Happi-Nappi was born. Children needed something to keep them warm and secure. Teachers wanted something that would not take up a lot of space. The original Happi-Nappi met these needs.
