Lenovo’s February 2026 supply-chain list separates in-house sites, outsourced manufacturers and component suppliers. It names Foxconn’s Wuhan operation for desktop/all-in-one ODM work; a supplier entry is not an allocation for every ThinkPad. [2]

Where are Lenovo products made?

The list includes Wuhan and Shenzhen in China, Whitsett in North Carolina, and other international sites. Lenovo’s September 2024 release specifically confirms AI-server production at Puducherry, India. [2][3]

Is Lenovo made in China or the USA?

Both Chinese and US sites appear in Lenovo’s March 2026 manufacturing list. The presence of Whitsett does not make every Lenovo computer US-made; Puducherry’s server line likewise does not establish a laptop’s origin. [2][3]

Same factory, different label

The list includes mobile-product outsourcing alongside PC manufacturing. Shared suppliers across product categories do not establish identical products; use the product label and model-specific documentation to identify an individual unit. [2]
