5 World Famous Companies That Were Started From A Garage..!!

#1 Amazon :
Jeff Bezos founded Amazon . com in 1994 as an online bookstore. At the time, it was completely run out of his garage in Bellevue, Washington. He sold his first book in July 1995 and issued his IPO two years later in 1997. Today it's the world's largest online retailer.

#2 Apple :
In 1976, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, ages 21 and 26 respectively, started Apple Computers by selling 50 units of Wozniak's Apple I Computer at $500 apiece to a local retailer. Jobs took the purchase order to a parts distributor and ordered the parts. 'The Steves' and their small team hand-built 50 computers in 30 days from a garage in Cupertino, CA. Today, Apple is the most valuable technology company in the world.

#3 Disney :
About 45 minutes down the road from Disneyland Park in Anaheim, CA, there's a house in Los Angeles where The Walt Disney Company got its start. In 1923, the house belonged to Walt Disney's uncle, Robert Disney. Walt and his brother Roy moved in with their uncle and set up 'The First Disney Studio' in the one-car garage out back. There they started filming the Alice Comedies which was part of the original Alice's Wonderland. Today, Disney is the highest-grossing media conglomerate in the world.

#4 Google :
As Stanford Graduate students, Larry Page and Sergey Brin started what's now known as Google from Susan Wojcicki's garage in September 1998. Soon the project was interfering with their schoolwork, so they tried to sell it to Excite for $1 million. Excite rejected the offer and now Google is the most trafficked site in the world.

#5 Harley Davidson :
In 1901, 21-year-old William S. Harley drew up plans to create a small engine to power a bicycle. Over the next two years, Harley and his childhood friend, Arthur Davidson, built their motor-bicycle out of their friend's 10 by 15-foot wooden shed in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It was the equivalent of a garage because they didn't have cars. They officially founded Harley-Davidson in 1903 and today it's the most well-known motorcycle brand in the world.
