Mitch,
Are all the Pico products made in USA with American components?
Hey Dave. Glad you asked!
Unfortunately, no, they are not. Its just the plain truth that we live in a global supply chain, and its really hurting tight now.
For instance.... The pico perch is moulded right here in NW Arkansas. However the plastic resin its made from, comes from Taiwan.
The Hardware they are put together with, comes out of Vermont, from metal stock shipped in from china.
The Hooks, well they are mustad..... Made from German Wire stock, formed in China, and distributed from the Dominican Republic.
Even the packaging is from California, from plastic resin out of Aisia.
We do every bit as much of it here, in the U.S.A. as we can. And will always work toward an effective, efficient way to do more. But this is just the reality of this business in this day and time!
hope that helps... Great question, and glad you asked!
Thanks for the honest answer. I figured this and like you said that’s today’s world. PICO is a good company with good products and being lead by a great owner. Thank you Mitch.
Wow, that really gets complicated. Can I get coronovirus from that german hook formed in China?
No, Slab, Not from the hook. HOWEVER, pleasae do not pop the bubble wrap that they come packed in. Think about where the air in those bubbles come from! LOL
Thank You!
