I will admit (rather, I have stated many times) the company has lost control of messaging on this point. Even locals in Hershey who aren't connected with the company seem not to know that the world's largest chocolate factory is still in Derry Twp, just 2 miles west of where it was.

I too, like Woolrich clothing, but as you mentioned, most of it is now made elsewhere.

I haven't been to the actual store in Woolrich, PA in a very long time. But I think they still send out catalogs.
