Hickory Yarns Inc., Hickory, N.C., is celebrating the fifth anniversary of its Ambassador Product Line of globally sourced nylon, polyester and acrylic yarns.

"It is very exciting to be able to achieve the same quality control standards for these products as with our own domestically made goods," said Freddy Miller, president.

According to Sales Director Lee Spach, the Ambassador line and the company's Elite Product Line of US-made yarns comprise a two-tier solution, pairing Ambassador's cost effectiveness for customers that require that option with Elite's quick-response capabilities to facilitate quick product development and production lead times.
