Made in the Philippines


Ralph Lauren clothing offers the perfect outfit for any occasion. It has always stood for providing quality products that sells a lifestyle image of sophistication, class and taste. When i bought a Ralph Lauren pants on sale, i was surprised that it was made in the Philippines. While a lot of Ralph Lauren's high-end exclusive stuff is made in Italy, polo shirts, pants and other products are made in the Philippines where they have some sub-contractor companies. Business-wise, labor in the Philippines and other parts of Asia is cheaper compared to US and Europe. Last year, Dirk also bought a printer and its in the Philippines that we found out that its made in Cebu. The ink that is compatible for the printer is not even available in the Philippines, only in Germany. I was also able to buy here a CD player made in our country, the same with Barbie dolls. My best friend Joy bought an Adidas shoes and she found out later that it's also made in the Philippines. I'm proud of it because these big companies provide employment to our countrymen.
