The E-M-FCompany was an early American automobile manufacturer that produced automobilesfrom 1909 to 1912. The name E-M-F was gleaned from the initials of the threecompany founders: Barney Everitt (a custom auto-body builder from Detroit),William Metzger (formerly of Cadillac), and Walter Flanders (who had served asHenry Ford's production manager).
In 1909, E-M-Fbought the Detroit plant of the De Luxe company and began production ofE-M-F cars. E-M-F produced several models of its own design and contracted tosell them through Studebaker wagon dealerships.
Late in 1909,E-M-F established a Walkerville, Ontario, branch plant to produce the E-M-F 30and Flanders 20. E-M-F had a third plant in Port Huron, which was sold to theHavers Motor Car Company in 1912.
Shortlyafterwards, E-M-F was bought out by Studebaker, which formed Studebaker Canada,and rebadged E-M-F's products: the E-M-F as the Studebaker 30 and the Flandersas the Studebaker 20. Sales of these rebadged models continued through the endof 1912.
