Our Story

Creating quality kitchen essentials that stand the test of time, supporting home cooks from their first recipe to their signature dish. 🍲

How It Began

The Farberware journey began in 1900 when 21-year-old immigrant Simon Farber established a company dedicated to creating quality cookware. As an experienced cookware factory manager, Simon understood that reliable tools were the foundation of cooking success.

From Our Kitchen to Yours

What started as a small operation quickly grew into an American kitchen institution. By 1910, Farberware had expanded beyond basic cookware to serving accessories and giftware, reflecting our understanding that confidence in the kitchen extends to the entire dining experience.

Looking Forward

As cooking trends evolve and kitchen technologies advance, Farberware continues to adapt and innovate while staying true to our core purpose. We continue to develop products that meet the changing needs of home cooks while maintaining the reliability and quality that have defined our brand for generations.
