Black ovis/camofire going out of business?

It's really wild to see the amount of brands that have a big daddy in the industry. Are there even any brands out there that aren't owned by some big conglomerate?

I know there are some but I really haven’t looked.
You think what GSM owns is crazy? Go look at your everyday items.
Johnson and Johnson. Nestle. Pepsi. Coke. 3M. GE. Kelloggs.
Then think that some of those are even owned by something larger.

Get too far into this rabbit hole and you'll come out sounding like Kanye...

I’m assuming those numbers on the doc are wholesale numbers so street value is easily double that. I know a guy that works for GSM and can get me anything they sell for 50% off, and I’m positive they’ll still make money.

Average profit margin for imported retail goods is 70-85%. Some items are over 1,000%. Some more than that.

Manufacturers (and I use that term loosely, "importers" might be more appropriate) don't lose money on products period.
