Abstract:
Cone Denim LLC's White Oak plant in Greensboro produces selvage. Once it was worn as jeans by everyone, but by the 1970s and 1980s, the shuttle looms were replaced by wider, faster ones. This changed the look and feel of the denim. Now selvage is making a comeback, and the White Oak plant has brought back the shuttle looms, which is the only way to make this particular denim. In some of the high-end stores jeans made with this material are selling for as much as $300 a pair.

Fresh Market, a family-owned business, opened its first store in Greensboro in the early 1980s. The format of the store is based on a European market and has proven appealing to customers. Whole Foods is its nearest competitor. Fresh Market now has 130 stores in 25 states and 10,000 employees. Net sales topped $1.3 billion last year. Although sales have slipped slightly, the company still plans to open 16 to 22 stores this year, with 4 in Houston in its first foray into Texas.
