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
Ergs sold in the US are assembled in Vermont from a mix of domestic and imported parts
“All Ergs sold in the US continue to be assembled in Vermont using domestic and international parts.”

VTDigger reports that the company does all its manufacturing at its own Morrisville plant and two named Vermont subcontractors
“Geer declined to give sales figures, but said Concept2 employs 65 people and does all its manufacturing at its own plant and at one nearby, Manufacturing Solutions Inc. or MSI, that was started by a former employee. Metalwork is done at NSA Industries in Lyndonville.”
