Miele is a German manufacturer of high quality domestic appliances and
commercial equipment. It was founded in 1899 by Carl Miele and Reinhard Zinkann and has
always been a family-owned, family-run company. Since the beginning, the Miele motto has
been "Immer Besser" or "Forever Better" and this philosophy is still reflected in the
legendary quality and longevity of the products.
Miele GB was established in 1963 when Karl Heinz Wedekind was entrusted by Rudolf Miele
to set up a sales and marketing subsidiary in Great Britain. Originally operating with a
small staff from offices in Great Portland Street, the company moved to larger premises
in Acton in 1972 and, in 1981, to its current purpose-built offices in Abingdon.
When the building was completed it provided an office area of 20,000 sq feet, which
included a second floor built as a shell for future expansion, and 56,000 sq feet of
warehouse space. In the intervening years, through the acquisition of two adjacent
warehouses, the Miele site has expanded to cover 13.5 acres, our storage capacity has
been increased to 120,000 sq feet and the opening of our new customer centre, the Miele
Experience Centre, in 2005 released much needed office space on the ground floor of the
main building.
