In the promotional industry, American manufacturing has its obvious benefits. Product safety, from basic toxicity concerns to complicated cases of fraud and counterfeiting, is easier to enforce and count on since it falls under the watchful (and litigious) eye of the U.S. legal system. Stateside orders, especially custom ones, can often be filled faster since there's no delay from shipping overseas. Similarly, inventories are more responsive to runs and massive purchases, making stock shortages less common. Practical and easy-to-understand benefits to be sure, but hardly the main reason for people's interest in American manufacturing.
