"World News Tonight" anchor David Muir has wrapped up the show's 12th annual Made in America Christmas series with a trip to Texas, getting an inside look at the American-made Igloo Coolers and the American factory workers making it all happen.
Outside Houston, Texas, in the town of Katy, it might not be a white Christmas, but things are sure to stay cool thanks to Igloo Coolers' factory.
Igloo was founded in 1947and today they employ over 1,200 workers, who they say are making over 55,000 coolers per day. That's more than 16 million coolers each year.
As the "World News Tonight" team approaches the front gate of the factory, Muir points out that it's in the shape of their iconic Playmate cooler.
Igloo's Playmate cooler –also known as "America's Lunchbox" – was engineered in 1971. Now, the company is paving the way in the industry again with its ECOCOOL® Collection.
