In the early 1930s, the Compañía Westinghouse Internacional S.A. was established in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and was a subsidiary of Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Company.

The Argentine subsidiary had a manufacturing-oriented production of domestic radios. The models produced in Argentina had different codes of USA and Canadian models, although in many cases the electronics were identical to those models as well as General Electric and RCA Victor.
