The Continental Edison is a French manufacturing and marketing company of electrical equipment established in 1882 by Thomas Edison.

History

Continental Edison was established in 1882 by French investors in partnership with Thomas Edison with the goal of marketing electric illumination and other equipment based on Edison patents.[1] The company has gone through several changes of ownership and was a manufacturing company up to 1971 when it stopped producing its own televisions and other home appliances, outsourcing production after that.[2] Products sold under the name include refrigerators, dishwashers, washing machines, and televisions.[3]

Nikola Tesla started his career in the electric power industry at the newly established Continental Edison.[4]
