Leviton is an American company headquartered in Melville, New York, and many of its products are made in America, but like most large electrical manufacturers, it also has manufacturing in Mexico and other countries. Leviton was founded in 1906 in Brooklyn, New York, and remains family owned and based in the US. It operates manufacturing facilities in the United States, including plants in New York and other states, where it makes a significant portion of its commercial and industrial wiring devices, lighting controls, and other products. However, to remain competitive on price for residential devices sold at Home Depot and Lowes, Leviton also has large manufacturing operations in Mexico and sources components globally, which is standard for the industry. So when you buy a Leviton outlet or switch at Home Depot, the package may say Made in USA, Made in Mexico, or Assembled in USA with global components depending on the specific product line. Leviton emphasizes that its engineering, design, quality control, and testing are done in the USA, and it maintains US manufacturing jobs. So the answer is partially yes: Leviton is an American company and makes many products in America, but not all products are exclusively made in America; some are made in Mexico and other locations while still being an American owned and engineered brand.
