thumb The White Sewing Machine Company was a sewing machine company founded in 1858 in Templeton, Massachusetts by Thomas H. White and based in Cleveland, Ohio since 1866. Founded as the White Manufacturing Company it took the White Sewing Machine Company name when it was incorporated in 1876. The company took the name White Consolidated Industries in 1964. It was acquired by Electrolux in 1986.〔http://group.electrolux.com/en/a-new-president-with-new-strategies-703/〕〔http://articles.chicagotribune.com/1986-03-11/business/8601180514_1_white-consolidated-industries-electrolux-bid-shareholders〕 In 2006 Electrolux sold off a number of its lines under the Husqvarna (including variations of the Husqvarna) brand name. The White line of sewing machines was consolidated into the lower end Husqvarna Viking brand after this sale-off. The White-Westinghouse brand name remained with Electrolux and that name is the only remnant of the "White Sewing Machine Company" name, however the brand line included no sewing machines. New "White" branded sewing machines models have not been manufactured since the Husqvarna spin off in 2006. Husqvarna Viking, Singer, and Pfaff brands are now all owned by SVP Worldwide. Though not advertised, SVP provides all of their user manuals for all of their brands including the "White" brand through the Singer brand website. The White Motor Company was founded by the same family as a separate company. == See also == * White Sewing Machine * Whitin Machine Works 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「White Sewing Machine Company」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
