label: Description
content: By the early 2000s, Chinese manufacturers had begun overtaking American manufacturers in producing condoms for not only the American market but also the global market. Chinese governmental policies which have long encouraged the free distribution of condoms aided the rise of many of the country’s home-grown condom companies. In recent years, Chinese companies have manufactured and sold their own condom brands but Chinese entrepreneurs have also bought condom manufacturers such as Ansell, an Australian company which produced condoms in Alabama.
