Five NB(New Balance)-owned and operated facilities
in US, & 6th facility in California owned by foreign suppliers,
that mow assembles shoes exclusively for New Balance.
NB adding 109,000 square feet to our Lawrence
distribution center in 2001. Despite expansions,
domestic manufacturing capacity has not been able to
keep up with overall demand and NB has had to rely
more heavily on sub-contracted overseas factories.
While the overall percentage of shoes made in this
country has decreased and the percentage made
overseas has increased, it's important to realize
that overall domestic manufacturing jobs and
production has increased significantly.
Since 1995 NB has added more than 500 manufacturing
and distribution center jobs in the USA,
representing a 65% increase in employment and
100% increase in domestic shoe production.
Currently, domestic production accounts for 25-30%
of overall production. The ongoing NB goal is
to increase percentage of domestic production.
