11 Famous Companies that Started in a Garage

Apple

Apple is another famous American multinational technology company based in Cupertino, California. It designs, develops and sells computer software, electronics, and other online services. Of course, we all know that it is one of the most popular smartphone and tablet companies in the world. Some of their successful products include iPod, iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and Macintosh.

The company was founded by  Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne in 1976. They started this project in order to develop Wozniak’s Apple I personal computer, but Wayne sold his share back to Jobs and Wozniak after 12 days. Shortly after, Jobs and Wozniak decided to hire some computer designers and set up a production line in Job’s garage.

Even though Steve Jobs is no longer with us today, his firm remains the world’s largest technology company by revenue, as well as the most valuable brand in the world.
