Bringing Manu Jobs Back to the U.S. – The hidden costs of offshoring

Reshoring Manufacturing with Harry Moser of the Reshoring Initiative

Harry Moser, founder of the Reshoring Initiative, talks about the total cost of ownership of manufactured goods. Various hidden costs often are not factored in when manufacturing work is sent to a foreign country. When work is brought back to the United States, these hidden costs turn into visible savings. The conversation between Harry Moser and Peter Zelinski was filmed at G & G Manufacturing in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The Reshoring Initiative Mission:
The mission of the Reshoring Initiative is to bring good, well-paying manufacturing jobs back to the United States by assisting companies to more accurately assess their total cost of offshoring, and shift collective thinking from offshoring is cheaper to local reduces the total cost of ownership.
