Over the last few years, there has been an increasing amount of buzz around the concept of “re-shoring, “in which an American company decides it’s more financially viable to bring manufacturing operations back to the U.S. from a foreign land. Generally speaking, company leaders are finding that the “total cost” of producing overseas -including rising labor costs, duties, freight fees and loss of intellectual properly -actually makes outsourcing the worse financial picture.
