Made in USA

What Made in USA does

Made in USA Inc. is a U.S.-headquartered (Cheyenne, WY) certification and product-origin verification company, publicly traded on OTC markets under ticker USDW. It operates as a Veteran-Owned, SAM-Certified, CAGE-Code-Registered (8JSY1) entity targeting American farms, ranches, manufacturers, and defense suppliers that need to substantiate Product of USA, Made in USA, and federal supply-chain origin claims under tightening USDA and FTC rules.

The platform is built on a hybrid blockchain architecture combining public XRP Ledger anchoring with private IBM Hyperledger permissioned records, plus a TPM (Trusted Platform Module) AI verification layer that flags weak, copied, or mismatched evidence submissions. Supporting features include DataWallet/Verity Vault portable proof files, Merkle tree proof packaging, and a progressive web app (PWA) for mobile field capture. Four certification lanes run on this stack: Product of USA Farm Certification (Micro through Enterprise tiers, plus cattle ranch track-and-trace at $1/head/month), Made in USA Manufacturing Certification (Small Business through $100,000 Compliance Program), Defense Supplier Readiness (DOD/DOW), and AI Discovery/AI Readiness subscriptions ($5–$499/month). A Small Farm Scholarship bundles a discounted $120/month subscription with waived audit fees targeting the first 10,000 small farms.

Revenue is generated across subscription monthly recurring licenses, one-time audit fees, per-animal track-and-trace unit pricing, AI Discovery subscription tiers, and recurring affiliate commissions on referred farm subscriptions. Distribution combines self-serve e-commerce (e.miusa.one, erp.miusa.one), an affiliate channel targeting the agricultural sales ecosystem (Farm Bureau, co-ops, FFA, 4-H, rural consultants, farm social media voices), and enterprise direct sales with invoice/ACH payment for large audit engagements. The company completed a $25 million all-stock acquisition of Made in USA One LLC assets in 2025 and also operates an Operation Transplant reshoring program for production line relocation into the United States.

Four partnerships are on record, tiered core and regulatory.

• XRP Ledger / Ripple EcosystemcoreTechnology or Integration · 1 January 2025XRP Ledger provides public blockchain anchoring for certification receipts, timestamps, and verification records. The Ripple ecosystem supports real-world asset tokenization and provides the public proof path without requiring private farm documents on-chain. Made in USA Inc acquired XRPL infrastructure stack to support blockchain-based verification services.
• Made in USA One LLCcoreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 1 January 2025Made in USA Inc completed $25 million all-stock acquisition of Made in USA One LLC assets in 2025. Acquisition included Made in USA Certified brand, AI-enabled verification tools, and blockchain/ERP infrastructure. Seller and buyer appear under common control. Technology stack acquired includes XRPL-based supply-chain technology assets.
• IBM HyperledgercoreTechnology or IntegrationIBM Hyperledger supports permissioned certification records, supplier data, processor information, chain-of-custody events, exceptions, and reviewer actions. Maintains the private enterprise records layer that keeps sensitive farm documents accessible only to authorized reviewers while preserving the certification trail.
• USDA / FSISregulatoryOthersUSDA and FSIS remain government authorities for USDA-regulated labeling requirements. MIUSA organizes proof, records, and verification workflows around the USDA Product of USA standard but does not replace government agencies. Made in USA Inc provides certification workflow infrastructure, not government certification.
