HISTORY OF ANDIS
The Beginnings
Andis Company traces its roots back to when Mathew Andis
was working at Mitchell Motor Car Company in Racine as a tool
maker and he decided to leave and start his own business. John
Oster and Henry Meltzer came to his home and asked to be
partners. Andis O M Manufacturing was born around 1920-21.
Soon their tool and die company had been contracted to make
tooling to produce clipper blades for a hand operated nonmotorized hair clipper. This partnership only lasted about a year.
When the three split, each started his own company in Racine,
Wisconsin. Meltzer started Master Appliance/MAMCO, and
Oster started John Oster Company. Andis quickly developed
the Andis electric clipper and began Andis Clipper Company
and that eventually evolved into Andis Company of today, which
was officially incorporated in the year 1922. Racine was a hot
bed for electrical motors, specifically with the invention of the
fractional HP motor. Local companies with the likes of Hamilton
Beach, InSinkErator, Dremel and Andis, used this technology to
make blenders, food waste disposers and rotary tools.
The advantage the Andis clipper had is that it was smaller, faster
and delivered a higher performance than other clippers available
at the time. This clipper was the first generation of today’s
Master Clipper, which is still one of Andis’ most popular models.
Production began in the basement of the Andis family home,
and the entire family helped assemble the clippers. Mathew
sold them door to door to the barbershops of Racine and the
surrounding area.
American barbers quickly embraced the new Andis Clipper.
Initially, Andis rented space in an industrial building to
manufacture the electric clipper, but the company grew quickly,
and was soon moving again, this time into a new factory building
with 16,000 square feet. Today, Andis employs more than 400
people at its 160,000 square foot facility, located just down
the street from Racine in Sturtevant, Wisconsin, where lean
manufacturing principles have been implemented to ensure top
quality products.
The Second Generation, 1938 – 1971
Matthew G. Andis Jr., an electrical engineer from Marquette
University in Milwaukee, became president in 1938 when his
father moved to Florida citing doctors orders it would improve
his health. He made the move, promoted his 30 year old son
to president and continued to live to the age of 92. Matthew
G. Andis, the second president of Andis, is credited with the
design of the still popular T-Outliner trimmer. Like his father, he
had a background of working at an early age in the business
and concentrated on developing the best quality clippers and
trimmers in the industry. Andis began exporting clippers and
trimmers during the 1930s under the leadership of Matthew G.
Andis.
The Third Generation, 1971 – 2010
In February 1971, when Matthew L. Andis was 32 years old, he
was handed the company reins. About that time, the Beatles
were popular, and the barber and beauty industry experienced
a huge downturn as hairstyles changed overnight. During this
period, Andis expanded in many creative ways: adding hair dryers
and curling irons to the product line; entering the animal market
with the fast, powerful direct drive rotary motor clipper, which
resulted in capturing the majority of the market; and introducing
the first wall mounted hair dryer, installed in hotel rooms all over
the world. It was becoming difficult to compete in the hair dryer
market with U.S. manufactured models, and in 1977 Matthew L.
Andis visited China to explore options. In 1978 Andis produced
its first product in China. Today the China factory produces
Andis hair dryers, irons, clippers & trimmers and has grown to
900 employees. The China factory compliments the USA facility,
as the majority of volume is still produced in the United States.
The greatest level of growth came from the creative leadership
and innovation of Matt L. Andis.
The Fourth Generation, 2010 – Present
Matthew K. Andis was named president of Andis Company on
June 1, 2010 at the age of 38. He is the fourth generation to hold
the position and shares the responsibility of guiding the company
with his two sisters, Marcia Andis, Senior Vice President, Market
Development, who oversees marketing, product engineering
and the European and Asian products; and Laura Andis, Senior
Vice President, Finance, responsible for IT, finance, and human
resources. Matt concentrates on operations and sales.
The Andis fourth generation is determined to be successful by
incorporating the values their father taught them into the everyday
operations of the family business, focusing on communication
and respect. “The company is a tremendous responsibility; one
that affects many families, not just our own,” the Andis’ believe.
Strong bonds among the employees perpetuate the family-like
environment within the Company, while excellence and integrity
drive the performance of all. Ensuring continuity and security
of the Company is extremely important, so planning for the
5th generation is underway to ensure yet another successful
transition.
What lies ahead? Andis intends to continue to innovate with new
products, to listen to what their markets want, to bring real value
to all their markets, and quite simply, to supply products that
make people look better and feel better. The fourth generation
has developed a strategic planning process that is a way of life,
guiding the Company along to its vision, while remaining true to
its legacy and roots.
Andis continues to grow globally. Almost 80 years ago Andis
introduced products to Europe and today these products are
available in 90 countries around the world. Barbers, stylists,
groomers, consumers everywhere continue to reach for Andis
clippers, trimmers, dryers, blades, curling irons and flat irons
when they want to rely on top performing tools.
With more product innovation, a long term strategy and the drive
of a dedicated workforce, many more great things are to come
for Andis Company.
