MAGIMIX. FOR THE PASSIONATE HOME COOK.
- 1961 -
THE FRENCH REVOLUTION
Back in 1961, in a small village in Burgundy, France, Pierre Verdun joined forces with his friend Robert Comte to develop a culinary brainwave.
Together they came up with the first food preparation machine featuring a blade on the bottom of a pot that could chop, grind, shred and knead.
- 1963 –
THE LAUNCH OF ROBOT COUPE
A patent quickly followed, and the ‘Robot Coupe’ processor was launched in 1963, aimed at professional chefs. These machines are still used today in commercial kitchens across the globe.
- 1971 -
A WOMAN’S WORK
This revolutionary and innovative machine saved hours of prep work and quickly became an international success. Robert Comte’s wife felt a tad envious. She asked if he could produce a smaller, domestic version for her kitchen. Robert Comte duly obliged and on 1st March, 1971, the first compact domestic food processor was born and christened ‘Magimix’.
All Magimix food processors are still handmade in a French factory in the former mining centre of Montceau-les-Mines, 70 miles southwest of Dijon. The accessories (blades, discs, etc) are all made in Sabatier stainless-steel and are made in Thiers, the French heart of knife-making.
Magimix has always boasted an industrial-grade, direct-drive induction motor, the type that automatically adjusts its power to the task in hand and is guaranteed for a somewhat staggering 30 years.
With design rooted in fully commercial products, Magimix food processors enable the home cook to accomplish professional results quickly, easily and quietly. Magimix food processors combine tradition and technology perfectly.
