Who owns Glacier Bay depends on whether you mean Glacier Bay National Park, Glacier Bay the faucet brand, or Glacier Bay the boat company. Glacier Bay National Park in Alaska is owned by the United States federal government and managed by the National Park Service, part of the Department of the Interior, on behalf of the American public. It is 3.3 million acres of protected wilderness, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, established as a national monument in 1925 and as a national park in 1980. No private individual owns the park, it is public land. Glacier Bay the faucet, toilet, and bathroom brand is owned by Home Depot, as it is Home Depot's exclusive private label house brand. Home Depot contracts manufacturers, mostly in China, to produce Glacier Bay products to its specifications and sells them only at Home Depot stores and homedepot.com. Glacier Bay the boat brand, which makes Glacier Bay catamaran powerboats, is owned by Glacier Bay Catamarans, now part of PowerCat Group, a private company based in the USA. So ownership varies. The national park is owned by the US government and all Americans, the plumbing brand is owned by Home Depot corporation, and the boat brand is owned by a private marine company. If you meant the national park, which is the most common meaning, it is owned by the federal government and managed for preservation and public enjoyment.
