it's something about nike and nike factories and their products but you can learn more about it at exampleessays.com. ADDED Also people are saying Nike are using sweatshops for their clothing basically
Nike has been accused of running sweatshops in third world countries since the 1970's. At various times, they have been said to use sweatshop labor in countries like China, South Korea and Taiwan. When these countries grew more skilled and organized labor unions, Nike shifted its focus to countries like Indonesia, the People's Republic of China and Vietnam, countries that banned labor unions.
I have heard of a 4 year old little boy that was forced to work in a nike sweatshop.
Nike contracts factories outside the United States to manufacture their products. Nike is not into the business of making shoes or apparel, what they do is sell the brand (NIKE). They contract sweatshops in mostly Asian countries like Indonesia, Taiwan, India, Thailand, Philiippinnes, Malaysia, etc. where they pay the workers about $1.60c for working 16hrs day for their services. Nike shoes are sold anywhere around $75-$150 but it literarily costs about $5 or less to produce these shoes. You should google up sweatshops and Nike and see what's up... I probably over-answered your question, hope this helped...
probably nike or gap. they have sweat shops all over the world and recenly nike had a problem with low wage paying for their workers in india.
Countries like south-east Asia, Indonesia, Mexico, Philippines and Vietnam
