Last I heard Ryobi was owned by OWT (One World Technologies) a Chinese company.......Used to be a plant here as well. One time employed as many as 2500......
>Black and Decker power tools were made right here in Fayetteville, NC until this year. They just closed that factory down. They also make Ryobi tools. It is a U.S. company (or at least it was for years - so many are moving offshore and being bought by foreign companies who knows now. I was offered a job with them back in the late 90s and I toured the facility).
