Kayser-Roth Corp., Greensboro, N.C., is investing up to $28 million to expand its Burlington, N.C., and Asheboro, N.C., plants, which manufacture legwear under its signature No nonsense® brand. The expansions are part of the company's No nonsense Sock Initiative with Walmart, which is expanding its Made in the USA program and has announced a goal of purchasing an additional $50 billion in U.S. manufactured products over the next 10 years.

Kayser-Roth produces more than 90 percent of its No nonsense tights, socks and sheer hosiery in the United States. The expansion will increase production capacity for that brand by 30 percent and will generate 50 jobs at each of the two facilities.
