Smeg kitchen appliances

Smeg is an iconic Italian home appliance manufacturer founded in 1948 by Vittorio Bertazzoni in the town of Guastalla, Emilia-Romagna. The brand name is an acronym for Smalterie Metallurgiche Emiliane Guastalla. Famous for its 1950s retro-style refrigerators and small appliances, Smeg combines high-end technology with aesthetic design through collaborations with world-renowned architects and designers.

While Smeg has expanded its production to include subsidiaries and factories globally, the majority of its high-end manufacturing remains centered in Italy. The brand remains under the private ownership of the Bertazzoni family, maintaining its heritage and headquarters in the same region where it was founded over 75 years ago. Today, Smeg is a global symbol of 'Made in Italy' excellence in the kitchenware and domestic appliance sector.
