It appears that the report of Bialetti’s plan to move production to Eastern Europe (see previous post) has been subjected to a case of Chinese whispers. The media having heard one thing, have then decided to embellish the story to make better copy and whip up a hyperbole of nonsense.

I have been reliably told that Bialetti is not actually closing its factory in Italy. Bialetti is planning to move only its cookware production to Eastern Europe. Manufacture of the Moka Express and many other stove-top models will remain in Italy.
