About

Proximity Manufacturing Company is a textile manufacturing arm of the White Oak Legacy Foundation, operating at the former White Oak Plant in Greensboro. Established in 2021, their denim manufacturing adds to their educational programming and provides employment opportunities. They source their warp yarns from Mount Vernon Mills and use US-grown ringspun cotton yarns. Their shuttle looms, originally built by Draper Corporation, weave cloth with a distinctive character and timeless appeal. The cloth is then inspected, packaged, and shipped to partnered brands. The company is also involved in research and development projects, aiming to operate as a nimble micro-mill in the textile industry.
