Country of origin is a means of determining where a particular dispenser was produced.
Most Pez dispensers have the country of origin clearly molded on one side of the dispenser. However, some dispensers have a Printed Country name. For dispensers that have No Country listed on the stem, the IMC can be used to help determine where the dispenser was made.
Common Countries of Origin
- Austria
- China
- Czechoslovakia / Czech Republic
- Hong Kong
- Hungary
- Slovenia
- Yugoslavia / Jugoslavia
- Vietnam
Rare Countries of Origin
- Brazil: Some Pez dispensers include the designation Industria Brasileira or Ind. Brasileira instead of the usual "Made in" followed by the name of the country.
- Mexico: See patent numbers.
- Germany
- Germany (U.S. Zone): Only original regular dispensers bear the US Zone designation. These were made in Germany, as the full designation Made in Germany / U.S. Zone attests. These dispensers were made after World War II, in the area of Germany controlled by the United States.
- Italy: See patent numbers.
- Spain
- USA: Some Pez dispensers with the 3.8 patent were made in the state of Vermont.
