The founding father of Electrolux is Axel Wenner-Gren whose principles that he established some 90 years ago still have a direct impact on the quality of life households now have.

It all started with a single vacuum cleaner that took years of innovation and acquisition until it became one of the global leaders in home appliances and appliances for professional use as well: the Electrolux Company today.

In the year 2000, Electrolux in North America sold its rights to the Electrolux Group of Sweden with the company in the USA named as Aerus LLC in the beginning of 2003.

It now owns about 500 franchises all over United States and Canada under its new name.

But Electrolux is still the name used by the Electrolux Group in Sweden, which is also the maker of Eureka vacuum cleaners.
