cl82 ◊ 2011-05-22 21:15	You're right. Thanks for the information! I didn't know that. Then I did some research and found out that they actually have two plants in the USA alone. The Canadian plant, however, exists indeed http://www.hinocanada.com/about_en.html but I was still wrong as its capacity is far too small to source the whole North American market.
