Vic Ewen & Staff 1939
The company was formed in 1926 by Scottish immigrant Vic Ewen, who
saw the need for an engineering firm in the baking and food industry.
Vic Ewens became the first manufacturer of mechanical ovens in Australia,
with the first production unit being a biscuit oven installed at Hardmans
Biscuits in 1939 (see Photo above).
Vic Ewens have been innovators in bakery equipment design since day
one, with many now commonplace processes, such as automatic lidding
in swing tray ovens, being first employed in our designs.
Over the years,
changing consumer tastes and advances in engineering technology have
resulted in Vic Ewens branching out into the areas of Arabic and pita
bread production, breakfast cereals, animal feeds, pasta and pastry,
pretzels and snack foods and fruit and vegetable drying.
Many new product introductions have been handled by Vic Ewen Industries,
with the numerous and varied start-up problems being solved by our
experience and expertise.
If you have a production problem - let us see what can be done about
