Made in America Everything

Made in America Store

Elma, New York

About Made in America Store

Mark Andol didn’t intend to get into the retail business. He began his career running General Welding & Fabricating, which grew to be so successful that it eventually opened four locations. But Andol took a tough hit because of unfair competition from China, and eventually had to close two of those shops. Inspired — and perhaps a little angry — in 2010 Andol opened the first Made in America Store in the vacant showroom of an Elma, N.Y. car dealership, stocking only 100 percent American-made products. Andol quickly discovered there was a high demand for American-made goods, and today the retail outlet has multiple locations and an robust e-commerce website.

Made In The U.S.A. General Store

Branson, Missouri

About Made In The U.S.A. General Store

The Made In The U.S.A. General Store in Branson sells everything from toys to tools, including big-name products like Tervis and Lodge. Everything for sale in the 6,000 square foot space is American-made, and as its name implies, the outlet is reminiscent of a friendly, old school general store rather than the sterile big box stores that dominate the retail landscape today. Be sure to stop by when you are in Branson.
