My friend offered to receive me at the railway station. C1 to react to something or someone in a particular way that shows how you feel about it, him, or her: The speech was well/warmly/coldly, etc. received by the conference delegates.
KITT is owned by Knight industries in both the Movie and Television series Knight Rider. David Hasselhof has never owned a KITT!
Also Hotpoint, Indesit and Creda are all owned by the same company. The Whirlpool group owns Whirlpool, Maytag and Kitchenaid, with many of the appliances being made in the same factories. Another extremley large European white goods manufacturer is the BSH group which owns the Bosch, Neff, Siemens and Gaggenau brands.owever, they may well end up purchasing virtually the exact same washing machine with a different logo along with the same after sales service engineers as well as the same company ethos. A few examples of this are Hoover and Candy, who used to be totally different companies, are now both owned by the Candy group.
