|    Located 
                    in Massachusetts and in the heart of the Attleboros, the birthplace 
                    of the Fashion and Recognition Jewelry industry in the United 
                    States, Ouellette Industries was founded in 1984 on a 
                    few basic principles and ideals:
 We hold a strong core belief in the American way of life. 
                    While others in our industry have taken much, if not all of 
                    their manufacturing capabilities to sources in foreign countries, 
                    we continue to offer only products "Proudly Made 
                    In The USA". The workers in other countries 
                    fall victim to exploitative employement practices and do not 
                    even enjoy the basic protections mandated by US Federal statutes 
                    and laws, let alone some of the benefits and securities our 
                    workers enjoy. We are dedicated to providing a safe and healthy 
                    workplace for our employees, excellent heath care insurance 
                    for their families, and long term security for their futures...and 
                    ours.   We 
                    support and partner with organizations dedicated to preservation 
                    and protection of North American wetlands and wildlife, clean 
                    waters, and clean air. We strongly support those organizations 
                    who in their corporate mission statements include being responsible 
                    custodians and conservators of our precious and limited National 
                    Resources. At Ouellette Industries we continue to invest in 
                    our factory to stay on the cutting edge of the technologies 
                    used to insure that our manufacturing operations, unlike so 
                    many around the world, discharge no hazardous waste by-products 
                    into either our ground waters or the air that we breathe.
 We believe in the positive power of personal recognition. 
                    From ancient times to modern day, emblematic and heraldic 
                    recognition jewelry and medallic awards have been the the 
                    most personal, and the most treasured form of individual recognition. 
                    While many organizations have moved to offer service and recognition 
                    awards using consumer goods and gift certificates, we hold 
                    fast to our belief in traditional values and non-disposable 
                    recognition.
