Default Re: Frigidaire by GM

Of the many things William “Billy” Durant did in his early years, his success at creating a company that produced horse drawn carriages led to him being the general manager of Buick in 1904. With stock money from Buick, he formed the General Motors Holding Company on September 16th 1908. At that time GM was just as its name suggests, a holding company that had purchased 13 different automobile companies, including Buick and Cadillac and a large number of parts manufacturing companies. One of them was Frigidaire.
