Viking Range, LLC, got its start in the 1980s under the direction of Fred Carl Jr. in Greenwood, Mississippi. He wanted a commercial-style range for his home, but nothing on the market met his needs. He spent years designing and building prototype Viking ranges; it took three years, from the company's founding in 1983, to deliver the first model to customers. In 1989, Viking began production of its full line-up in Greenwood.
After two decades of meteoric growth, The Middleby Corporation acquired Viking Range Corporation in 2013, expanding the company’s portfolio of commercial kitchen technology and manufacturing. The acquisition was followed by considerable reengineering efforts to improve quality and durability, with most of the focus on integrating technology from The Middleby Corporation’s other brands into Viking kitchen appliances. Since the acquisition, Viking’s product catalog has expanded to include over 50 new offerings.
The majority of Viking appliances are still made in Greenwood, Mississippi, including ranges, ovens, and full-size refrigerators. Some, but not all, of its dishwashers and freestanding refrigerators are made overseas. We can help you determine if your preferred Viking model is 100% made in the USA.
