The Aerus company started in north America in 1924 under the name Electrolux. The company changed name in 2000 when it decided to include a line of domestic health products. Electrolux had a factory in l'Assomption Québec between 1985 and 2014. It hosted over 1200 workers daily to make household appliances like refrigerators, ovens and vacuums under the names Electrolux, Eureka et Frigidaire. Production was eventually transferred to the United States as jobs diminished at home. In 1961 under the name Hupp Canada products such as Westinghouse-White, Frigidaire, and Electrolux occupied homes until 2014. This particular vacuum was used by a couple briefly in 2013 in Aylmer Québec because it came with the new home they had just purchased.
