Cuisinart

Cuisinart is an American home appliance brand owned by Conair Corporation.
The company was started in 1971 by Carl Sontheimer to bring an electric food processor to the U.S. market. The “Food Processor” was the first model, introduced at a food show in Chicago in 1973. The name “Cuisinart” became synonymous with “food processor.” It is also a portmanteau of “cuisine” and “art.”
Cuisinart became the property of Conair Corporation in 1989.
