Last 3 I had replaced came from Kentucky I believe ... but that just could be a distribution point.

GIMNEPIWO may be correct that this is a distribution center.

BatMan@eastonsports.com might be able to tell you where they are made.

According to their Annual Report (Form 10-K) Easton Bats are manufactured in Asia (Taiwan and China). If you have an Easton bat manufactured in the 1st quarter of 2007 or earlier the bat was manufactured in Van Nuys, CA.

A friend of mine who is in the machinery locating business arranged for the shipment of all of their equipment to be shipped overseas. They are no longer manufactured in the US.

Bats are made in China. The only bats that have been made in the US in the past 5-ish years were aluminum bats up until about 2 years ago when the factory in Van Nuys, CA was closed and production also moved to China.

Wood bats are all still made in Van Nuys, CA.

The Kentucky facility was just a place where warranty returns were handled.
