American Owned

This product made by a company that is primarily owned by Americans. Primarily is defined as 51% or more interest ownership in the company. This can be complicated for publicly traded companies. When the company is publicly traded, we will use the official location of the business.

Example: Certified American ownership interest is 100% American owned. Microsoft is publicly traded and majority interest is hard to identify. Microsoft would be classified as American Owned as the company’s official worldwide headquarters is in the USA.
