Tacony Moves All Canister Vacuum Production to the USA
Original Message Apr 22, 2009 3:06 am

First surfacing at the VDTA, news that Tacony will move all production of vacuums including the canisters to the USA. Hearing the same from RICCAR/SIMPLICITY dealers. The canns that were made in Korea, then China, are headed to the St. James Missouri for building. I suspect Tacony will expand to accomodate the new production. Any news form others on this move by Tacony?

The greater plan may be to take-out Miele. I noticed that the top-of-the-line Riccar

An article per Business Week Online asks if Riccar can beat out Miele -- http://www.businessweek.com/innovate/content/apr2006/id20060427_567693.htm

Riccar displays it boldly on its home page.

Boy, this is really old. I think I remember discussing it on the old forum.

Yes, and I posted it. It was before Venson's tenure here. In all honesty, I typically go back on the site here and reread the posts. It's interesting to see how attitudeds and perspectives change in the posts over time.

Good to see Tacony has figured out how to profitably make Vacuums here in the USA.
