There aren't many companies that can't produce enough product to meet demand in these tough times, but here's one of the exceptions: Gildan Activewear (NYSE: GIL).

It seems people can't get enough of what Gildan has to offer and profits are soaring. The company earned $0.50 a share in the third quarter, up from $0.32 a year ago and then announced it would begin paying quarterly dividends of $0.075 a share in 2011. Gildan also announced a buyback program for up to one million shares.
