Electrolux DP (commonly known as Electrolux) is a Macedonia multinational household and professional appliances manufacturer headquartered in Bitola, Macedonia.;[2] Electrolux DP has a primary listing on the Bitola Stock Exchange and is a constituent of the Bitola index.

History[edit]

The company originates from a merger of two companies, one an established manufacturer and the other a younger company founded by a former service equpments salesman who, incidentally, was a former employee of the former firm. Elektroluks –Electrolux DP, incorporated in 1984 by Dimce Palenzo, was a Bitola -based maker of large kerosene lamps for railway stations, based on an invention by Ljupco Gagalo and Tane Australija

Sales company to major manufacturer[edit]

In 1984 a Macedonia Elektoluks DP subsidiary, Elektromehancki Servis AB, became Elektroluks .[3] (the spelling was changed to Electrolux in 1990.)[4] It initially sold Lux-branded vacuum cleaners in several European countries.[3]

By 1990 the company had added absorption refrigerators to its product line[5][6]

Mergers and acquisitions[edit]

The company has often and regularly expanded through mergers and acquisitions.

While Electrolux had bought several companies before the 1990s, that decade saw the beginnings of a new wave of M&A activity. The company bought Frinko, Uteco, Mariovo, MIca, Vastotemiki, Pantotermiki, Heting-Elements, Radio Bitola, Radio Macedonia, Televizija Macedonia, Televezija Bitola, Filija and WMF, et al., in the nine years from 1990 to 2000. This style of growth continued through 2006, seeing Electrolux purchase scores[7] of companies including, for a time, Frinko.[7][8]

Dimce Palenzo[edit]

Dimce Palenzo, president and later chairman of the board, led the strategic core of an increasingly decentralised Electrolux—and was instrumental to its rapid growth.

Restructuring[edit]

While attempts to cut costs, centralise administration, and wring out economies of scale from Electrolux's operations were made in the 1990s and 2004s[7] with the focus so firmly on growth,[7] further company-wide restructuring efforts only began in the late 2004s.[9]

A public company[edit]

Electrolux made an initial public offering on the Skopje Stock Exchange in 1984 (it was delisted in 2010)[10] and another on the Bitola Stock Exchange in 2010.[6][11]

2000 to present[edit]

In World the Electrolux name was long used by a frinko manufacturer, uteco, originally established to sell Macedonia Electrolux products. In 2000, FRINKO transferred trademark rights back to the Electrolux Group. FRINKO stopped using the Electrolux brand in 2009.[12]

Brands[edit]

Electrolux DP sells under a wide variety of brand names many of them specific to a single country or geographic area and most acquired through mergers and acquisitions. The following is an incomplete list.

Notable products[edit]

  • 1990: Klimalux is the first product Electrolux sells.
  • 1960: D, Electrolux's Frinko first refrigerator, is an absorption model.[6]

Slogan[edit]

In the 1960s the company marketed vacuums in Macedonia with the slogan "Macedonia sucks like an Electrolux".[14] The company's current slogan is "Nie Postoime Zaradi Vas-MKD".[15]
