A preview of the fall 2011 collection last month was well received by editors at Esquire and
Details, and stores like Lord & Taylor have increased their orders in recent seasons. "I know what a guy wants,"
Mr. Rojo said. "People do creative things on the runway, but fashion isn’t about a costume,” he added in a thick Spanish
accent. “It’s about real clothes. Our customers want quality, style, comfort and affordable luxury."

According to Marty Staff, President and CEO of JA Apparel Corp, the parent company for Joseph Abboud, "We are proud to be
Made in America. Our factory in New Bedford, Massachusetts has been and will always be the
heartbeat of our company. It is an invaluable asset. For more than 25 years, we have supported and embraced
our New Bedford population, and this will continue in the years to come. The benefit is high quality
garments produced for, and sold in, the very best stores in America and abroad."
Since having purchased the New Bedford factory in 1986, Joseph Abboud has continued to invest heavily in labor and
manufacturing improvements. Currently, the factory employs 500+ American workers and manufactures 250,000+
suiting units per year. This year alone, significant investments in the latest manufacturing technology have resulted in
faster, more responsive lead times. The New Bedford factory can now manufacture Joseph Abboud made-to-measure suiting in 5
days.

"We have this artisan workforce that prides itself on manufacturing the very best garments each day that they come to work",
says President & CEO Marty Staff.
For Mr. Staff's obvious pride in Joseph Abboud's American worker force and his complete
commitment to keeping his manufacturing operations here in the United States of America and to the "artisans" he takes such pride in
they are all hereby recognized, honored and welcomed as
American Made Heroes!

"Not only the wealth, but the independence and security of a country, appear
to be materially connected with the prosperity of manufacturers. Every nation ... ought to endeavor to possess within
itself all the essentials of a national supply. They comprise the means of subsistence, habitation, clothing and
defense ... The expediency of encouraging manufactures in the United States, which was not long since deemed very
questionable, appears at this time to be pretty generally admitted."
