Nombre: Curry (Curry's) Ltd.; London    (GB)  
Abreviatura: currys
Productos: Modelos
Resumen:

Curry Ltd. (also mentioned as Curry's Ltd.), 24-28 Goswell Road, London EC1.
Curry's is basically an electrical and cycling retailer. Own manufacturing of radios (etc.) is not yet known.
From 1922 to 1924 Curry's was even rebranding Edison Bell and Gennett records (most of them anonymized) as "Westport Curry Value" series.

Currys is becoming the main brand of DSGi as they rationalise the Dixons, Currys and PC World stores often close or even side by side to single Currys/PC World dual branded stores.

Historia:
Currys began as Curry's Cycles founded in 1884 by Henry Curry (born in Leicester in 1850), when he started to build bicycles full-time in a shed at the back of his garden at 40 Painter Street, Leicester, England.

The company was formed in 1897 when Henry formed a partnership with his sons, calling the company H. Curry & Sons. Of course charging accumulators (Lead Acid Batteries mainly for LT/Filament) for Radios was in demand, So they started selling radios. The business continued to grow and floated on the stock exchange in 1927. By this time the shops sold a wide variety of goods including bicycles, toys, radios and gramophones. Currys pulled out of cycle manufacturing in 1932.

Later they used their own branding on Radio sets from a range of makers, such as "Westminster" Branding in the 1950s.

They then became eventually Currys Electrical and then Currys (with no apostrophe).

In 1984 Dixons acquired Currys.

In 2010 they added The 'Logik' brand for small screen televisions, DVDs, kettles, toasters and headphones. The "Sandstrom" brand for much the same kinds of products such as blenders, kettles, toasters, microwaves and dishwashers as well as TVs, but "inspired" by Scandinavian Style.

Earlier they had used Asian sounding brand names such as "Matsui" as Japanese products from Sony, Panasonic etc had acquired a better reputation than UK products which had increasingly been perceived as lacking in features and quality compared with Japanese products.

The Dixon Group Company became DSG International and had PC World for IT products and Dixons for Film Cameras. Dixons was founded in 1930 by Charles Kalms. His son used the "Prinz" brand in the 1950s and "Saisho" in 1982.

With the rise of camera phones and Digital photography, the Dixons shops became more like Currys and Dixons was relegated to an online store. From 2011 onwards the aim is to reduce the crippling rent & lease costs by combining PC World & Currys premises, with Tablets, HD TVs and MP3 players there was much overlap.
