Vitamix
Founded in 1921, Vitamix manufactures high-performance blending equipment for home and commercial use. The Vitamix family of companies is privately held and family-owned. Its commercial customer list reads like a “Who’s Who” of major restaurant chains, and gourmet chefs say their Vitamix machines are as important to them as their knives. The company developed the first true commercial blender in the early 1990s, which ignited the smoothie movement, and has been named the Best in Class Overall beverage blender for eight consecutive years by readers of Foodservice Equipment & Supplies magazine. Vitamix continues to win awards for innovation in its products, which are known worldwide for their performance, versatility and ease of use, and are available in approximately 140 countries. The company is headquartered in Olmsted Township, Ohio, near Cleveland.
