The creator of the blender
The blender was first invented by Stephen Poplawski, owner of Stevens Electric Company, in Racine, Wisconsin in 1922. He wanted a way to mix up drinks like malts and milk shakes, which had become popular at soda fountain restaurants. ... Osius invented this version of the blender, and received a patent for it in 1933. -
The first market of the blender
In 1935 Fred Waring joined up with Frederick Osius and marketed the Waring Blendor. -
A new model of the blender was made
