Peg Perego is the Italian stroller brand that is one of the few stroller brands that does not make its strollers in China.
The company was founded in 1949 by Giuseppe Pérego, who designed a baby carriage for his son. Unlike other strollers that used wicker and sheet metal, Perego used "rubberized fabric" as the seat base. The strollers proved to be popular and the Peg Perego company was launched.
The company expanded into different juvenile categories in the 1970's and 1980's, including car seats, high chairs and toys (ride-on vehicles).
Peg Perego was among the first European stroller brands to expand sales to the US, landing in the US in the 1970's. Unlike other stroller brands that off-shored production to China, Peg Perego strollers are still made in the company's factories outside Milan, Italy. (The only exception was a brief time during the 2000's when Perego made in one model, the Aria, in China).
