History
Dupuy founded La Cornue in order to create ovens that used a new type of natural gas being used in Paris. By taking advantage of the circulation of hot air within the oven, he was able to create a much more effective oven than the others at the time. This first oven was called Rôtisseuse-Pâtissiere La Cornue (La Cornue Roast and Pastry cook).
In the 1950s, Albert Dupuy was succeeded by André Dupuy and the company was modernised. The 5 Etoiles (5 Star) range was also introduced at this time. The company was further modernised following the takeover of Xavier Dupuy in 1985, despite remaining a small business of around 60 staff.
In 2015 Middleby Corporation acquired Aga Rangemaster Group which included La Cornue.[1]
