Website of Café Breville

At the 1932 Melbourne Cup, Bill O’Brien, a radio salesman, and Harry Norville, an engineer, placed a bet on 4-1 pony ‘Peter Pan’, and won. Despite tough economic times, the two decided to invest their winnings into something they’d long dreamt of and started “Breville Radio”. The word ‘Breville’ is a derivate of the founder’s names; O’Brien and Norville. But by the late 50’s, television had all but replaced the radio, and as such Breville’s focus turned to small appliances.John O’Brien, (Bill’s son) quickly became passionate in the growing small appliance business; founding the Breville Research and Development center in 1972. Two years later, the world’s first scissor-action sandwich maker was invented, selling 400,000 units in its first year; - one of the most successful product launches in Australian history. Today, from New Zealand to the UK, toasted sandwiches are still affectionately called ‘Brevilles’, so much so that the term has been added to the Australian dictionary. The sandwich maker’s success was soon followed by the iconic ‘Kitchen Wizz’ food processor, together with a range of high-performance, time-saving appliances such as blenders, dairy bars, yoghurt makers and waffle irons. By the early 80’s Breville had established an office in Hong Kong, and was exporting its innovations to 15 countries.During the 90’s, Breville’s hometown of Sydney was quickly becoming the world’s most multicultural city with a craving for fresh, healthy foods and a taste for Mediterranean and Asian cuisine. Breville’s revolutionary innovations like the high-wall heating electric wok, the health grill, panini press, and award-winning Juice Fountain and espresso machines, brought Sydney’s ’’Café Culture to millions of homes around the world. In 2001, Breville’s merger with Australian kitchenware company HWI, helped support the expansion of Breville’s Centre of Design Excellence, and bring Breville design and innovation to North America.
