The 'Colossal Headache' of Building a Made-in-America Monopoly Game
Original: The ‘Colossal Headache’ of Building a Made-in-America Monopoly Game
The Wall Street Journal reports on the difficulties Hasbro faces in trying to produce the Monopoly board game entirely in the United States. The article describes the challenge of rebuilding domestic supply chains for components like the game board, tokens, cards and money, which have long been made abroad, calling the effort a 'colossal headache' for the iconic toy brand.
Why now: Ongoing political and corporate pressure to move manufacturing back to the United States is putting a spotlight on how hard reshoring is even for simple consumer products.
