Last week, Bob from Kong USA had the opportunity to visit Kong headquarters in Italy and spend the day with the Kong Italy marketing team.

Beyond discussing upcoming projects and exchanging ideas, the visit provided a firsthand look at the people, craftsmanship, and manufacturing processes behind the Kong name. One of the highlights was touring the factory and watching products move through every stage of production, from raw materials entering the facility to finished equipment ready for professionals and outdoor enthusiasts around the world.

A sincere thank you to the entire .italy team for the warm welcome, incredible hospitality, and behind the scenes access. Seeing the passion, precision, and dedication that goes into every product made the experience especially meaningful.

Visits like these strengthen the connection between our teams and help us share the Kong story more authentically with our customers across the United States.
