DO YOU KNOW WHO MAKES YOUR STUFF? THE STORY OF MY xxxxxxx BALL

THE PICTURE on this page is clear. It shows an Indian family in the Punjab stitching a xxxxxxx rugby ball in Exeter’s green colours. The ‘xxxxxxxxxx Match Ball’ [pictured] on the floor costs £42.50 on the brand’s website and the man on the right was paid a mere 34 pence to stitch it.

Welcome to the Sports Ball Industry.
