Fall River Factory Featured in Hillary Clinton Commercial
A Fall River factory has been featured in Hillary Clinton's newest commercial. According to the Fall River Herald, the New England Shirt Company on Alden St. was approached by the Clinton campaign after the owner appeared in a CNN story about Donald Trump making his shirts overseas.
The Herald News writes that The New England Shirt Company also made the news recently by creating the beautiful oxford shirts for Ralph Lauren that the U.S. Olympic athletes wore at the closing ceremonies of the summer games.
Robert Kidder told Herald News, “We proudly consider our factory to be a slice of America,” he stated in a written response. “Our family of cutters, sewers, pressers and staff is a diverse network of ethnic backgrounds, religious ideologies and, of course, political leanings.”
Congratulations to the New England Shirt Company on all of the recent publicity!
