About brand
The creation of the American Tourister brand dates back to 1933. In America, in the state of Rhode Island, then an unknown but sufficiently enterprising immigrant from Poland, Saul Koffler, founded a company called American Luggage Works. The goal was to produce the most comfortable and beautiful, but at the same time affordable luggage. Experience in the factory for the manufacture of chests-wardrobe, ambitions and non-standard ideas allowed him to achieve great success.
Of course, developing a company during the Great Depression was not easy enough. Then Sol Koffler decided that he would be able to interest buyers in these difficult times for the country, not only with the reliability and convenience of the products created at his factory. At the same time, cheap products compared with their competitors.
The first years the pricing policy of the brand was limited to 1 dollar per bag, which in those days was a relatively small amount for such an accessory. As a result, in one year of operation, the factory sold 5,000 products, and the brand became popular among practical Americans.
A revolutionary commercial for those years, which eventually became one of the 100th best of the 20th century, helped achieve the 88% mark in America. It is such a strong and powerful animal, as the gorilla checks the strength of the suitcase American Luggage Works, which brilliantly withstand such an onslaught. After that, the relevance of the company's accessories has increased significantly, and the image of the gorilla has strengthened in the history of the brand and has become an addition to the traditional brand logo.
In 1994, the brand was bought by a large American company Samsonite, after which it continued to exist under the new name American Tourister.
Since 2005, the brand’s products have been represented not only in European countries, but have also begun to be extremely successful in sales in Eastern countries, which marked its ascent to the world's top leading manufacturers of bags and suitcases.
Currently, the brand does not give up its positions and continues to delight its customers with very strong and reliable accessories that will become not just stylish, but also an indispensable assistant for every traveler.
