  
In the early months of 1922, Mathew Andis, Sr. built a working model of an electric clipper. Small, self-contained, it withstood every test of performance. Convinced that he had created the best on the market, he borrowed a little capital and established a business. The beginnings of the Andis Clipper Company were humble indeed. American barbers took to the new Andis Clipper with real enthusiasm, for never before had they known a clipper that was so small, so compact, yet so fast and practical. For more than 77 years, Andis has provided the barber and beauty industry with the finest quality clippers and trimmers to assure the highest level of professional results. Designed and a majority of clippers manufactured in the US, Andis also offers a complete line of quality clippers and trimmers for animal grooming from dogs and horses to cattle and sheep. The Company's World headquarters resides in Racine County. Just how continuous and rapid Andis has been expanding in recent years can be judged from the fact that in 1997, Andis Company built a new air-conditioned, state-of-the-art factory. This new 107,000 square foot building includes production areas, as well as warehouse capacity for storing new materials and offices for the entire staff. Andis Company's growth was achieved through dedicated company management and an outstanding workforce that concentrates on producing the best quality products for today's market.
