Framingo
I just got around to going through some pictures that I took while visiting some factories in China last October. Yes, this cup actually says “Framingo” on it with a picture of a Pink Flamingo. That’s why we hire awesome copywriters and editors for all of the products we import - any retailer involved with importing should consider doing the same.

Yeah, what is the problem? We can put a flamingo on a cup and say ‘framingo’ if we want, or a chinese guy building the railroads and say ‘handy inexpensive labor.’ sky’s the limit.

I reckon somewhere in asia lives a large, pink, long-legged bird that is in fact called Framingo. Check out the truth at Google. Or was it that long-legged lady covered with feathers
all over …
By the way my website’s name www.framingo.info is on purpose based on the same fun mistake.
Remember the old Philips advertisement: No - it’s not Phirips!
