In New York City, the fashion industry accounts for more than five percent of the workforce and generates nearly $18 billion a year in retail sales. This year, the city will allocate $15 million to encourage emerging designers and manufacturers to create fashions locally through a program called Made in New York. Eligible companies like Leota, must sell at least 1 000 products annually and design, cut, sew, assemble and finish their fashions in the city. Founder Sarah Carson is looking forward to additional Made in New York production incentives. Leota was launched in New York four years ago and has steadily grown.  But manufacturing in New York has limitations—sky-high rents, an aging workforce and outdated technology. The Made in New York program provides incentives to factories that invest in technology and workforce development.  So far, the city has granted more than a million dollars to eligible factories.
