Dignity Apparel’s Union-Driven Approach to Revitalizing American Garment Production

For decades, Image Pointe's unionized workers have screen-printed
clothing in Iowa. So, when the company contemplated starting its
own American-made apparel factory that held true to the same
ethical labor practices, Image Pointe CEO Josh Ruyle knew it had to
be union-represented. In 2024, Image Pointe opened Dignity Apparel
in Tennessee with 100% of its workforce represented by Workers
United, making it the only union-knit fabric manufacturer in the
U.S. Dignity Apparel's Ruyle and Matt Davis discuss why unionizing
their workforce has been a critical part of their company's
American-made success. Photo courtesy of Dignity Apparel
