Denim Manufacturing Process
The cotton, grown from a farm in India, is picked with a cotton picker. Then the cotton is dumped into a machine that puts it into a large "wrapper". It is then cleaned in a gin, and the seeds are removed. Then the cotton is made into fabric by combining the fibers together through spinning and weaving thread. The cotton is then sent to Egypt to be made into jeans!

Manufacturing PROBLEMS
Globalization Categories
Economic - Because of the need of new and more efficient technology in the growing jean companies, the machines made will no longer require human assistance, resulting in less jobs for the people living in those countries. They will then have to find jobs elsewhere to support their families.
Technology - The jean production companies are multiplying and the necessity for newer, faster, and more efficient machines is upon us.
Cultural - Our jean production is all over the world and it might be causing the cultural clothing of other countries to change, because they are the ones making the jeans and it is becoming more of a universal clothing.
