Black+Decker is a globally recognized brand that originated in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1910. Founded by S. Duncan Black and Alonzo G. Decker, the company revolutionized the tool industry by introducing the first portable electric drill with a pistol grip and trigger switch. Over the decades, it expanded its portfolio to include a wide range of household appliances, garden equipment, and kitchenware.

Today, Black+Decker is owned by Stanley Black & Decker, a powerhouse in the industrial and consumer goods sector headquartered in New Britain, Connecticut. While the brand carries an American legacy, its manufacturing is highly globalized. Production occurs in various locations including the United States, China, Mexico, and several European countries to meet global demand.

Starting in 2026 and beyond, Stanley Black & Decker remains the ultimate owner, continuing to manage the brand's presence in consumer electronics and hardware markets worldwide. The company operates through numerous local subsidiaries and distributors to ensure its products reach professional and DIY consumers in nearly every country.
