State many travel. .agents in the easter United States schedule bus tours to some of the areas with heavy concentrations of discount items. i Offered for sale are items rang- ing from first quality -name brands to irregulars and clseouts which are priced accordingly. Most of th outlets are located near major traffic: arteries in cities and towns all over the state. The largest center for discount « buying'is Burlington where there are two outlet shopping centers in addition to over 20 in- dependently operating outlet stores. - But many other major outlets ‘are located in Raleigh, Durham, Roanoke Rapids, Gastonia, Asheville, Asheboro, Lexington, Salisbury, Kan- napolis, Concord, Greensboro, High Point, Winston-Salem and Eden. The manufacturers range from top to mid-line products. Some offer catalogues to in- terested customers, most accept credit cards, all are accessible to shoppers. Why is North Carolina home to so many factory outlets and discount shopping stores? Partly because of the. early history of manufacturing in the state. Before the advent of the automobile, many places in North Carolina were not easily accessible, but labor was and re- mains cost effective. Manufac- turers found the state an ideal location with a ready work force, and an ambulance of raw materials to provide goods for the rest of the country. They also discovered that their employees were interested in owning products they themselves had helped to make, so were their families. As a result, employees’ stores featuring company manufactured products began opening their doors and finding an accessible market. Word of mouth created an active market and more and more manufac- turers got into the business. Outlet guides are available for a small fee from Central Publica- tions, P.O.
