La Cornue is a Frenchoven andcooking rangemanufacturer, founded in 1908 by Albert Dupuy, a Parisianherbalist andperfumer. The company currently produces three types of ovens:Château,CornuFé, andCornuChef.
Dupuy founded La Cornue in order to create ovens that used a new type ofnatural gas being used inParis. 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 calledRôtisseuse-Pâtissiere La Cornue (La CornueRoast andPastry cook).
In the 1950s, Albert Dupuy was succeeded by André Dupuy and the company was modernised. The5 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 2015Middleby Corporation acquiredAga Rangemaster Group which included La Cornue.[1]
