American Apparel

The other day I saw a report on a Montreal company called American Apparel. Well, it's not really a Montreal company since it has stores everywhere around the world, but it IS run by a Montrealler. The idea is really simple. They want to manufacture and sell high quality clothes 100% sweatshop free. Their main factory is in Los Angeles, and if I remember correctly, all their factory workers make double the minimum wage. This is definitely the kind of enterprise I want to encourage. If they stay true to their mission statement, I might end up spending a significant amount of money there.
