Concept2 has built its indoor rowers, and later the SkiErg and BikeErg, in Morrisville, Vermont since the Dreissigacker brothers started the company in a Vermont barn in 1976. The machines are a fixture of CrossFit boxes and rowing clubs worldwide.
The company is precise about what “made here” means for it: its own sustainability page says the Ergs are “assembled in Vermont using domestic and international parts”. That is assembly of imported and domestic components on US soil — the second mark — not full domestic manufacture, and the record follows the source rather than rounding up because the company happens to be American-owned and Vermont-based.
The record
