"Globalization has greatly helped our industry to become more profitable; however, in some ways, it has negatively affected the quality of the product. Now, more than ever, we have products that are made faster and cheaper - causing them to be more disposable to the consumer. It has caused us to have to be much more careful when it comes to the products we choose to import and distribute."

"Globalization is a two-sided coin. I feel that it has been great because it offers more options when it comes to manufacturers and materials sourcing. On the other hand, more guidelines need consideration when making decisions. Also, the quality of the product can more easily suffer."
