DeLonghi

Although established in 1902 by De’Longhi family as a small manufacturer of industrial parts, the company was not formally incorporated until 1950.

Now based in Treviso, Italy, the company has grown into an international powerhouse that manufactures portable heaters and air conditioners, toasters, kettles, microwaves, electric ovens, fryers, and coffee machines. In 2011, the acquisition of British company Kenwood granted the company access to a Chinese-based factory and consequently saw it move the majority of its manufacturing to Asia.
