Contrary to many other businesses, Breville greatly benefited from the drastic change in lifestyle and work-from-home environment that resulted in people purchasing coffee makers to brew their own morning cup of coffee. This significant profit growth is also due to the company\u2019s expansion into the new international markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was the fourth year in a row that the company achieved double-digit growth, with 2021\u2019s annual sales increasing 24.7% to $1.19 billion. Earnings before interest and taxes increased 39.6% to AUD $136.4 (US $97m) million and the net profit increased 42.3% to AUD $91 (US 65m) million.

Breville\u2019s retail sales increased 8% to AUD $203.5 m (USD $145m), leading to a 10.6% increase in earnings to AUD $25.3m (USD $18m).
