Moves to reshore signal a gradual return to 'Made in US'

Many American companies are finding that manufacturing in China is no longer the best option, reports PaulWelitzkin in New York.

For 74 years, Miller Manufacturing Co in Eagan, Minnesota, made farm, ranch and pet products distributed in the United States, Canada and other countries.

Like other US-based manufacturers, Miller had suppliers in China making products such as the company's Chow Tower automatic dog feeder. In 2013, after seeing a sharp increase in shipping and labor costs in China, Chief Executive Officer Dan Ferrise decided to have the dog feeders molded at a plant in Minnesota. The move marked Ferrise's slow turn away from China back to the US.
