Alcoa Corporate Office

Alcoa Inc. (The Aluminum Company of America) was founded in 1866 by Charles Martin Hall after he discovered the process for smelting aluminum. This process is still the only known process for making aluminum. The new company was called the Pittsburgh Reduction Company.

By 1903 the company was manufacturing aluminum at three sites and was the only legal producer of aluminum in the United States. The company faced competition only from foreign producers, who were subject to high tariffs.

From 1938 to 1940 Alcoa was involved in a trial with the U.S. government concerning its monopolistic hold on the aluminum industry. Alcoa was ordered to break up. World War II meant an increased demand for aluminum, one that Alcoa was unable to fill. The U.S. government built two plants which were operated by Alcoa. After the war, the U.S. government sold these two plants to new rivals.

During the 1970’s, with smelting increasing in cost, Alcoa began to look for alternatives, settling on recycling. By 1979 the company was reprocessing 110 million pounds of scrap aluminum and by 1985, 500 million pounds.

Today Alcoa is the world’s third largest producer of aluminum and conducts operations in 31 countries. It is involved in all aspects of the industry: technology, mining, refining, smelting, fabricating, and recycling.

Alcoa’s products are used in aircraft, automobile, commercial transportation, packaging, building, and construction, defense, industrial, and oil and gas worldwide. The company has over 60,000 employees and had $25.9 billion in revenue in 2011.

Raytheon Corporate Office

The Raytheon Company was founded in 1922 by engineers Laurence K. Marshall and Vannevar Bush, and the scientist Charles G. Smith as the American Appliance Company in Massachusetts. The company originally focused on refrigeration technology but soon changed to electronics.

The company’s first product was a radio-receiver power supply that made it possible to convert household alternating current to direct current and thus eliminate the need for batteries. This invention was called Raytheon, meaning light of/from the gods.

In 1925 the company changed its name to Raytheon and marketed the product with the same name, to great commercial success.

During World War II Raytheon received a contract from the U.S. Government to manufacture a device that improved the capability of radar to detect enemy aircraft.

In the research for this device, the potential of microwaves to cook food was discovered and the company manufactured the first microwave oven in 1947.

In 1961 Raytheon merged with A.C. Cosser, a British electronics company.

In 1980 the company acquired Beech Aircraft Corporation, a leading manufacturer of general aviation aircraft.

In the 1990’s Raytheon expanded further in the defense electronics field through numerous acquisitions.

Today Raytheon is a major defense contractor that has a manufacturing concentration in weapons, and military and commercial electronics. Raytheon is the world’s largest producer of guided missiles.

Raytheon has 68,000 employees worldwide and had $24.857 in revenue in 2012.
