Neil Gilman, president of a Bozrah sports equipment manufacturer, shifted to making personal protective gear during the worst of COVID-19 last year and bid on an $8 million order for surgical gowns to the Veterans Affairs.
Speaking to U.S. Sen. Chris Murphy at a recent gathering of a dozen manufacturers at Goodwin University in East Hartford, Gilman, head of Gilman Gear, said he lost to a company that sourced its materials in Mexico, vastly undercutting his price and exposing a significant rupture in “Buy American” provisions.
