minus-squarePyr@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up4·4 days agoIts infuriating when I see labels other than “made in” Things like designed in, packaged in, assembled in etc. Sure, include those in addition to the made in label but don’t replace it. If 90% of the item is imported from another country, say that country. Any country involved in over 10% of the items production should be listed on the packaging in my opinion. “Designed in America, assembled and packaged in Taiwan, produced using components from mexico, Brazil, Australia” For example.
