Show:<\/strong> 160 What do you do when your locally-made, custom-ordered apparel start-up company needs employees and there’s no one in the area capable to do the work? If you’re Ben Waxman and Whitney Reynolds, you partner with other local companies to recruit and train the workforce you need. American Roots<\/a> (AR), owned by Waxman and Reynolds, is the sister company to Old Port Wool and Textiles<\/a>, owned by Waxman’s mother, Dory Waxman. AR is a custom-made fleece apparel company based in downtown Portland and their orders are coming in so quickly, they’re fast outgrowing their Danforth Street shop. With business-to-business orders keeping them busy through the summer of 2016, this new Portland business is already looking to grow – and fast.<\/p>\n
