  • Sunbeam Corporation: “Chainsaw Al,” Greed, and Recovery
    1 Sunbeam Corporation: “Chainsaw Al,” Greed, and Recovery INTRODUCTION When John Stewart and Thomas Clark founded the Chicago Flexible Shaft Company in Dundee, Illinois, in 1897, they probably never expected that their company would grow into a huge conglomerate and face ethical and financial dilemmas more than 100 years later. Like many corporations, the firm has survived many crises. It has changed its name, acquired rival companies, added new product lines, gone through bankruptcy, restructured, relocated, and hired and fired many CEOs, including “Chainsaw Al” Dunlap. Today, Sunbeam has grown into a well-known brand of consumer products used for cooking, health care, and personal care. MORE THAN ONE HUNDRED YEARS OF CHANGE The first products that Sunbeam manufactured and sold were agricultural tools. In 1910 the company began manufacturing electrical appliances, one of the first being a clothes iron. At that time, Stewart and Clark began using the name Sunbeam in advertising campaigns, although the company did not officially change its name to the Sunbeam Corporation until 1946. Sunbeam’s electric products sold well even during the Great Depression when homemakers throughout the country quickly accepted the Sunbeam Mixmaster, automatic coffee maker, and pop-up toaster. The years following the Great Depression were times of growth and innovation for Sunbeam. The next major development came in 1960 when Sunbeam acquired rival appliance maker John Oster Manufacturing Company, which helped make Sunbeam the leading manufacturer of electric appliances. During the 1980s, a period of relatively high inflation and interest rates, corporations were going through acquisitions, mergers, restructurings, and closings—doing whatever they could to continue operating profitably.
