Fox River has been making socks in Wisconsin and Iowa since 1900. In addition to offering its employees (many of whom have been employed well over twenty years) great wages and benefits, Fox River's knitting mill is an international model for "green" companies, and is part of a state-of-the-art environmental initiative in their hometown of Osage, Iowa. As part of the Osage Municipal Utilities (OMU) Demand-side Management Program, Fox River has reduced energy costs more than 30%. The OMU program begun by conservationist and now retired OMU General Manager Wes Birdsall in 1974 has become world-renowned. In fact, Osage has been dubbed "the energy conservation capital of America." In addition, Fox River donates 5% of its net profits on sales of its women's socks to breast cancer research.
