Do you promote your products as “Made in the USA”? Under the law, some products must disclose U.S. content. For others, manufacturers and marketers who choose to make claims about the amount of U.S. content need to know about the shift from the FTC’s former Enforcement Policy Statement on U.S. Origin Claims to the new rule.
Sara Yood, Deputy General Counsel will provide a review of recent action from the Federal Trade Commission on the “Made in USA” rulemaking.
Erich Jacobs, President of JBT will provide an overview of what he is seeing in the digital world.
