Johnson Woolen Mills

	Johnson Woolen Mills Johnson Woolen Mills is an American manufacturer of woolen outer wear and other wool and flannel clothing located in Johnson, Vermont. Ownership The company began in 1842 when local farmers brought their own wool in to the local mill above the Gihon River, owned by Andrew Dow, to have it woven into cloth. The business was originally a fabric manufacturer and began to make its own clothing in the early 20th century. Dow partnered with and eventually sold out to Isaac Pearl who ran it as the I. L. Pearl Company. He was joined by D.A. Barrows in 1905 who soon became the company's owner. The company remained in the Barrows family, handed down for three generations, until the final Barrows owner Stacey Barrows Manosh purchased it from her father in 1998. After Manosh took over, the company started more actively courting international markets and attending larger retailer conventions. Eventually the Japanese market turned into 30 percent of all of JWM's wholesale purchases. The busin ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]

picture info	Mackinaw Jacket The contemporary mackinaw jacket, also known as a mackinaw coat, is a short double-breasted coat made of a thick heavy wool material, generally with a red-and-black plaid pattern. Etymology The word "mackinaw" is derived from the Odawa Ojibwe language word "Mitchimakinak" meaning a large turtle.Mencken, Henry Louis. (1945). The American Language: An Inquiry Into the Development of English in the United States'. pg. 173. Knopf. When French-Canadian fur traders transliterated the word, they spelled it as Michilimackinac but pronounced the final consonant as "aw" Rather than "c". The British later shortened the word and changed the spelling to match the French pronunciation: Mackinaw (though the French spelling was used for Fort Mackinac when constructed in 1780–81). Origin The origin of the mackinaw jacket is owed to the British Army Captain Charles Roberts, while commanding Fort St. Joseph along the St. Mary’s River near Sault Ste. Marie. Roberts was unable to obtain mi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]

A retailer purchases goods in large quantities from manufacturers, directly or through a wholesaler, and then sells in smaller quantities to consumers for a profit. Retailers are the final link in the supply chain from producers to consumers. Retail markets and shops have a very ancient history, dating back to antiquity. Some of the earliest retailers were itinerant peddlers. Over the centuries, retail shops were transformed from little more than "rude booths" to the sophisticated shopping malls of the modern era. In the digital age, an increasing number of retailers are seeking to reach broader markets by selling through multiple channels, including both bricks and mortar and online retailing. Digital technologies are also affecting the way that consumers pay for goods and services. Retailing support services may also include the provision of ...
