Gildan closing Clarence New Buffalo Shirt Factory plant.
WOW, is all I can say.

New Buffalo Shirt Factory had established a large production facility in Honduras several years ago, prior to their being acquired by Gildan / Anvil. Production and Print Development activities have been split between the two facilities for the last couple of years.
Gildan / Anvil recently informed all employees at the NBSF Clarence, NY facility that all operations are to be consolidated into the Honduras facility. While I can understand the business reasoning behind the decision, it's sad that the company that revolutionized simulated process screen printing on black garments will cease to exist as a US Based company.
RIP New Buffalo Shirt Factory, you will be remembered and missed.
