Who owns Midea?
Midea Group is a listed Chinese company. Its report distinguishes the listed operating group from Midea Holding and the shareholder structure; “Midea” is not simply another retailer’s private label. [1]
Who actually makes Midea products?
The 2024 and 2025 reports describe Midea’s own appliance and industrial businesses. The group’s manufacturing network is broader than the factories producing a particular Midea-branded refrigerator or microwave. [2][1]
Where are Midea products made?
The 2025 report describes manufacturing in China and overseas and discusses locally developed and produced Brazilian appliances. This guide does not turn that group footprint into a factory assignment for an unlisted US model. [1]
Is Midea made in China or the USA?
Midea has Chinese manufacturing as well as international operations. The April 2026 Electrolux announcement describes future Anderson, South Carolina conversion through a joint venture; planned 2027 production should not be presented as already operating. [1][3]
Same factory, different label
Electrolux and Midea’s partnership covers defined North American businesses and joint ventures. It is not evidence that Midea acquired the entire Electrolux group or that every Frigidaire and Midea appliance is identical. [3]
