GOODBULB is now making LED bulbs in Fargo North Dakota!
An ongoing search for bulbs not made in China led me to discover a new company which has just opened in Fargo North Dakota, billed as the United States' ONLY current factory that makes LED bulbs in USA (as of August 2026). According to the website a 49-year-old lightbulb salesman named Tom Enright has "spent the last eight years developing his lightbulb company in Fargo" and he sounds like a man with a lot of passion for this important project. He built a state of the art lightbulb factory to the highest standards possible.
I have not tried these bulbs yet as I am actually searching for FLUORESCENT TUBE bulbs, and Goodbulb only makes LED screw-type bulbs. But I wanted to help spread the word because I think people need to know about this company. They just started selling their USA bulbs in July 2026 and I hope they really take off!
To Tom Enright's credit, he admits that although much of the product is assembled in Fargo, some of the components still have to be "imported" because no domestic suppliers currently make them, HOWEVER he says "phase two" of the factory is to start making other parts there as well. I still say that's way better than the 100% Chinese alternative and if we all support this Goodbulb company then they will have the money to be able to grow and continue on with Phase Two.
