American Spinning Works is rebuilding premium cotton-spinning capacity on U.S. soil, beginning with a ring-spinning hub in Yuma, Arizona — keeping the value of American Pima cotton at home instead of exporting it raw.
American Spinning Works is an initiative to bring premium cotton spinning back to the United States. America grows the world's finest Pima cotton but operates in a market where exports account for more than 85% of overall U.S. cotton demand, surrendering the most valuable step in the supply chain. Its flagship campaign, Operation Chromite, proposes a ring-spinning hub in Yuma, Arizona — a distressed community on premium freight corridors inside Foreign Trade Zone #219 — with a full-scale project model of $120M+ in retained value and 400+ jobs per mill, replacing an illustrative 2,900-mile round trip into a short domestic loop.
