"Carmen Palmieri founded our company in 1943 in his basement with no money and a strong desire to work. The first aluminum castings he made were tiny Italian cookie irons. After filling an order for sinker molds requested by one of his customers, he decided to create an entire line of molds, branded with his name. Because it was difficult to sell products under a very Italian sounding name at that time, he Americanized it to be C. Palmer Manufacturing, Inc.
As the business continued to grow, the product line expanded, too. By the late fifties, his basement was too small for the operations, so Carmen and his first son, John, built the company's first plant. John was fresh out of the Navy and anxious to help his father. He had worked in electronics during his time in the Navy, and he had several new, innovative ideas for products, as well as plans for how they could automate the production. The company introduced the first electric Pizzelle Iron and the Palmer Sandwich Toaster."
