Barbie：Originally made in Japan
Barbie has a long history. Many people don’t know this but Barbie was originally tied closely to Japan. Barbie was originally made in Japan, then the production base shifted to Southeast Asia in the 1970s and then to China in the 1980s. Initially, Barbie was produced in Japan because labor costs were lower than in the United States. The textile industry in Japan was also thriving. This meant that the dolls and the costumes could be ordered together very cheaply.
