A BRIEF HISTORY
Located in Belleville, Illinois, Peerless-Premier Appliance Co. began as two separate companies, Premier Stove and Peerless Enamel Products. Both companies were in the electric and gas range business.
In 1975, big changes came when Peerless purchased all capital stock of Premier. For several years, Premier Stove Company operated as a subsidiary of Peerless. In 1982, the companies combined to form what is now known as Peerless-Premier Appliance Co.
Throughout the years, the company saw substantial growth, granting it the opportunity to add several smaller companies to their business. In 1986, a group of private investors purchased the company.
