American Apparel
People were lured to American Apparel because of the company’s motto, “Made in the USA — Sweatshop-free.”. Making ethical consumers support the LA brand was a brilliant concept. Up until 2015, the company was performing exceptionally well, but it has since struggled to get back on track. Gildan Activewear, a Canadian corporation, bought the name and manufacturing equipment rights for $88 million two years later and saved the company. We’re not sure if American Apparel would be around today if this hadn’t happened. If you insist on being literal, the company’s headquarters are still in the Americas.

Sunglass Hut
Sunglass Hut is a popular shopping destination for many eyewear enthusiasts in the United States. There are colored shades and clear glasses available from the brand. South Africa, India, the UK, and other countries all have a presence in it. Despite this, the company was founded in Miami, Florida, by an optometrist named Sanford Ziff. The business was sold in 1986, five years after it opened its 100th store. Luxottica purchased it in 2001 for $653 million. When I was growing up, there were around 1,300 shops all over the place. Nearly 2,000 locations are currently open throughout the world.
