LOVE this quote, “Hamrick Mills, owned and operated by the Hamrick Family for 117 years……continues to ply its trade under fourth- and fifth-generation family members, operating under many of the same principles set forth by their lineage. Those principles being: A keen focus on quality, innovation and customers and a deep realization of the importance of investment and diversification in order realize those principles and stay competitive in the topsy-turvy world of textiles……Through two World Wars, the Great Depression, globalization and the Asian migration, the Great Recession and other economic vagaries, the fabric manufacturer now counts itself among a short list of U.S. weaving survivors – and the future is bright, according to company leaders”.
