Encyclopedia > Alfred Fuller

Alfred C. Fuller (January 13, 1885 _ December, 1973) was a Canadian businessman.


Fuller was born on an Annapolis Valley farm in Welsford, King's County, Nova Scotia, Canada. He moved to Boston, Massachusetts in 1903, at the age of 18, to live with his sister. A few years later, with a $75.00 investment, he started the Fuller Brush Company in Hartford, Connecticut, selling brushes door to door. By 1919, it had achieved sales of more than $1 million per year. Fuller Brush went on to be recognized throughout the continent, remaining in the Fuller family’s hands until 1969 when the company merged with Consolidated Foods Inc.


He maintained a lifelong connection with his native Nova Scotia, buying a home in Yarmouth where he and his family spent most summers.


Fuller died in December, 1973.
