Anchor Hocking is still around. For now. But if this pattern of private equity destroying trusted brands continues, one can only imagine how difficult it will be as a consumer to purchase well-made household commodities. I do not want to navigate a world where the provenance of every product is unknown, its white-label manufacturing origins hidden behind an alphabet soup name like MALACASA, KOMUEE, or M MCIRCO (all actual names of oven safe glassware products for sale today).
