Penn fishing rods are made in China. The decision to move manufacturing to China was made in an effort to remain competitive in a challenging market. Labor costs are significantly lower in China, and the Chinese manufacturing sector is capable of producing quality products at a faster pace. While this decision has resulted in some negative feedback from customers, it has allowed Penn to remain a leader in the fishing rod industry
