The line between "own produced" and "whitelabed" is also tricky (or maybe it's not, if you're an expert in the industry). Is it "own produced" even if it's by a contract manufacturer, as long as that particular product isn't produced for anyone else? Large retailers demand unique models of things like electronics to prevent comparison shopping/price matching.

Hah yes. My original list was much more than three long, you can find many places to draw the line.
Going in another dimension, you can introduce the kind of wonkiness you get around "made in the USA" labeling on products which have all their parts manufactured elsewhere and then some trivial last step done on US soil.
