Maybe, maybe not...I haven't found out with research, in 2010 it said Bialetti already produces in Eastern Europe, and this entry confirms that again: http://www.finon.info/blog...

"The Italian coffee pot manufacturer Bialetti is discontinuing production of its world-famous mocha pots in Italy. The reason for this is the huge competition that is becoming more and more present, especially from capsule machines. Production is moving to Eastern Europe, to Bulgaria and Turkey. Bialetti's competitors have also been producing there for a long time.
