What we stand for

about brother our history products through the ages

Our History

Originally founded over 100 years ago in Nagoya, Japan. While Brother’s technology and business activities have evolved over time, a foundation of strong leadership and product innovation has remained constant throughout. These qualities remain important today as they were in 1908.

To this day we're still producing the sewing machines that made us famous, as well as a range of industry-leading office technologies and business solutions.
