Like most successful businesses, Brumby’s had a modest beginning. The first store, known then as “Old Style Bread Centre”, was opened in the Victorian suburb of Ashburton in 1975. Over the next decade the “Old Style Bread Centre” was introduced and expanded in Queensland. During the ’80s, it was believed that the brand would be stronger with a “truly Australian” identity – so the Brumby’s brand was born. By the early ’90s, Brumby’s had become a true franchise success story.
