In 2015, the United States imported close to 88 billion U.S. dollars worth of apparel. Nike, which name is derived from the Greek goddess of victory, is the largest apparel company in the world and is headquartered in Beaverton, Oregon. It was founded on January 25, 1964 by Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight. Nike's revenue amounted to approximately 32.38 billion U.S. dollars in fiscal year 2016.
But they are found in almost every wardrobe. Uniqlo, a successful Japanese firm with big ambitions, has transformed them into a goldmine. Having conquered Japan, it is now taking on the world. Uniqlo's parent company, Fast Retailing, is Japan's biggest clothing company, with sales of $9 billion forecast this year. Whereas many Japanese businesses are ailing because of the stagnant domestic economy, Fast Retailing is flourishing.
