Miele celebrities 125 Years

July 1899, Carl Miele Sr. and Reinhard Zinkann registered their new company Miele & Cie. with the vision of making better products rather than cheaper ones. This commitment to ‘Immer Besser’ has guided Miele through 125 years of remarkable achievements.

Today, Miele is one of Germany’s most respected brands, employing over 22,000 people in 49 countries. Our journey has been marked by many successes and pioneering milestones, as well as challenges and bold decisions that have shaped the company.
