The
website "Shop Israel in the Bay Area", http://www.israelemb.org/sanfran/shop/clothes/delta.htm,
maintained by the Israeli Consulate General in San
Francisco, says, "Most of the cotton bras in
Victoria's Secret and some of the cotton panties in
Victoria's Secrets are made by Delta Galil Industries.
To be on the safe side, look for a 'Made In Israel'
label." But these days, if you look for the
Made in Israel label, you probably won't find it.
Lautman has moved most of his jobs to cheaper labor
states in the Arab world, Asia, Latin America, and even
Italy.
