Back to EpisodesFTC Cracks Down on Fake Made in USA Claims
Description
The Federal Trade Commission has recently settled three lawsuits against companies making false Made in USA claims. Americana Liberty, a Florida-based company, was fined $167,743 for selling Chinese-made flags, flagpoles, and military banners labeled as American-made. TouchTunes Music and Oak Street Bootmakers also paid penalties for importing parts and using foreign materials in their products. None of the companies admitted guilt, but they agreed to refund consumers and correct their labeling. The FTC is now vigilant in preventing deceptive patriotic marketing from swindling consumers.
