It seems the Malta factory does the klickies, and the others do the accessories?

Yes, Malta makes the klickies, Czech plant makes the advent calendars and other high hand work sets plus I think some of the electronic stuff, Ditenhofen in Germany makes the rest of the stuff. Not sure what gets made in Spain, they have a small plant there but I;ve never heard what comes out of it.
