Why do large companies make their clothes in other countries?

Usually other countries (like China) don't have laws about minimum wage or child labor.

Therefore, textile and clothing companies can hire a lot of people

(adults AND children), and pay them very little to make goods to sell and ship to buying countries.

Because of all this cheap labor, the products are cheaper, and designers can buy textiles for very low prices while making a better profit.

This is why they sometimes prefer to buy from other countries.
