The Viking Story



Being a leader requires confidence. It takes vision to anticipate what's just beyond the horizon. It takes guts to create something in a space where nothing existed before.

Leading is exactly what Viking has been doing for almost 40 years. We originated the professional-grade range for the home kitchen. Our industry-leading innovations in appliances set the American standard for the modern luxury kitchen. From cooking and ventilation to refrigeration and cleanup—Viking delivers professional performance and stunning design. Simply stated, our products have become the standard for both elite chefs and discriminating designers alike.

Not only do great leaders know who they are, they know where they've come from. Viking launched an entire industry from the heart of Mississippi, in the quaint town of Greenwood. Located in the Mississippi Delta, Greenwood is home to flavors, sounds, and languages from around the world while also adhering to the importance of family, home, and excellence. These values informed every aspect of that first Viking range—and still inform everything we do today.

After leading the field for nearly four decades, we're just getting started. We won't quit innovating or dreaming. Our advanced performance features and bold new design concepts are unexpected for the field—but not surprising considering Viking's place in the market. We can't wait to show you what's new, and what's next.
