Dec 12, 2012 Devmir’s BOD decided to close Dominican Republic factory and outsource mainly from Turkiye.

March 16, 2009 Devmir’s Dominican Republic factory is busy and getting busier – We would like to send a special thank you to all of our outstanding clients for making this facility a reality.

Where do we go from here? Phase 1 of our new manufacturing facility is complete.  Devmir’s long-range plan is to create the world’s first 100% renewable sock manufacturing facility with a zero carbon footprint. It’s an ambitious undertaking but it’s a journey well worth embarking on.  It is the core value of each of Devmir’s three principals, that we should be more than the product we produce. Making socks… you’ve got to make a living somehow, but that’s only part of it. The best part is knowing that we make a difference every single day!

It’s official, the Devmir Dominicana manufacturing facility is now open. With all of the rising fuel costs and rising production cost in China, the Devmir Dominicana plant could not have opened at a better time. Our US clients now have the best of both worlds great quality, competitive pricing, and we are very close to home. It is of no surprise that we are busy cranking out samples for many of you. Thanks for helping us get here. If you’d like to talk to someone about your specific sock manufacturing needs, please call Altug Sipal at our home office in North Carolina. He can be reached at 919-545-5500.

May 7,2008 – Devmir’s team arrives in the Dominican Republic to begin the installation of Devmir’s knitting machines at its new manufacturing facility in the city of Puerto Plata. The factory is twenty minutes from the port and is in a Free Trade Zone park.

December 15 , 2007 – The site for Devmir’s Dominican Republic manufacturing facility has been selected. It will be located in Puerto Plata which is on the northern side of the island. The plant is scheduled to open later in 2008.

September 12, 2007 – Devmir develops a new diabetic sock which will be marketed under the company’s “BeneFits” brand. The new diabetic sock features soy yarn for improved feel and treatment of the skin. The sock also features a relaxed top and a hand-linked toe so that the wearer does not suffer if their feet swell. Early in 2008, Devmir will introduce the silver version of its new diabetic sock featuring HydrySilver yarn for the purposes of making this diabetic sock also an highly effective antibacterial sock.

June 8, 2007 – Devmir begins plans to open a factory in the Dominican Republic for the manufacturing of many of its socks. With current manufacturing done in Turkiye, the new facility will allow for shorter time in transport and more competitive pricing for its wholesale division. The new Devmir factory is scheduled to open in 2008.
