Titusville, PA, March 14 –
HomerWood® Premium Hardwood Flooring was cited by ABC World News Tonight on its website – www.abcnews.com – as a resource for consumers looking for American-made home materials as part of the network’s “Made in America” series.
The ABC News series “Made in America” focuses on the purchase of goods made in the USA. When nearly everything in the majority of American households today is manufactured overseas, the series aims to explore whether it’s possible to live comfortably and stylishly, with only American Made products.
“The ABC series is incredibly relevant as it aims to not only raise awareness of the accessibility of American made products in order to boost the economy, but the series notes that ‘if just 1% more was spent on American made items, thousands of new jobs would be instantly created’,” said Wendy Wescoat, HomerWood Marketing Manager.
Through the series’ website, www.abcnews.com, web users can view a coast-to-coast list of products being made in the U.S.; HomerWood Premium Hardwood Floors is one of the ABC-identified companies.

“The HomerWood call-out on ABC’s website is exciting, because it serves as a resource for those consumers looking for truly American-made items and gives them a chance to discover our unfinished solid hardwood product,” said Wescoat. “The website spotlight also aligns us with a highly relevant and significant issue that not only will lead new consumers to our products, but will ultimately help make a difference in the U.S. home goods economy and job market.”
