I was listening to a story about Foxconn exiting China, so I thought to look where my new Raspberry Pi came from:

Sony UK TEC began its partnership with Raspberry Pi in 2012 and has produced over 50 million units in the last eleven years, making this one of the most successful contract manufacturing partnerships for the European Sony site. In addition to the five core Raspberry Pi models, the Welsh-based facility also produces the full range of Pi peripheral products, as well as several other products for global third-party customers.
The only problem so far is that the cooling fan connector won't fit on the header pins.
