Company history

Henry Nyberg was from Sweden . He manufactured his first vehicle in Chicago , Illinois in 1903 . Together with the financier Waller, he founded the company in the same city in 1903. In the same year the production of automobiles began. The brand name was Nyberg . The company was also active as a repair shop. This activity was more important to the company than its own vehicle production. In 1904 the company moved into larger business premises. Production ended in the same year. The company existed as a workshop until 1907. Then the partners separated.

In 1907, Nyberg and HE Jennings founded the Nyberg Automobile Works in Chicago as a used car dealer and tried in vain to manufacture vehicles again. He only succeeded in doing this in 1911 with the Nyberg Automobile Works in Anderson , Indiana .
