The approach worked. Zanussi went from 10 employees to 300 in just over 30 years. Zanussi continued to look at improving the little jobs consumers do every day by building the Zanussi Centre. A place dedicated to bringing innovation, technology and design together. Zanussi enjoyed another first in 1951, when they launched the first gas cooker in Europe.
