Responsibility that endures – since 1899.
Miele is a family-owned company in every sense. Since its founding, the business has remained in the hands of the Miele and Zinkann families. Today, around 80 shareholders belong to the family – direct descendants of the founders Carl Miele and Reinhard Zinkann.
Both families continue to play an active role in the company’s leadership. Together with four additional non-family Executive Board members, they shape the future of Miele – with foresight, a strong sense of responsibility, and the ambition to keep improving.
The Heart of Miele in South Africa
Miele in Bryanston, Johannesburg is the central hub of Miele in South Africa. It is a unique blend of African culture and tradition juxtaposed with modern, quality home appliances - beautifully interpreted by the 12m high ‘kraal’ wall, face brick wall ‘carvings’, and rough cement gallery floor. Copper is synonymous with South Africa, and the floors are patterned with copper studs, while tree-like canopies (symbolizing meeting places in old Africa) welcome visitors.
The showroom houses stylish appliances that are are installed in backgrounds of rough steel, stone, or glass, beautifully contrasting the latest in modern kitchen cabinet design.
