A Brief History of Hotpoint

Hotpoint was founded by Earl Richardson in 1911 at Ontario in California, US. The global headquarters are now based at Peterborough in Cambridgeshire, UK. Earl Richardson was an American inventor who created the first ever electric iron in 1905. The brand name derived directly from the product, which was then called Hotpoint iron. Richardson established the brand as Pacific Electric Heating Company. It was renamed as Hotpoint Electric Heating Company a few years later. It was also known as Edison Electric Appliance Company after it merged with General Electric’s Heating Device Section and later it became Edison General Electric Company in the early thirties. Most of the appliances branded as Hotpoint are manufactured at the Appliance Park of General Electric in Louisville, Kentucky.
