The company BSH Hišni aparati d.o.o. Nazarje in the Upper Savinja Valley in Slovenia has been manufacturing small domestic appliances since 1970 (first under the name MGA and owned by Gorenje). In the beginning 68 workers were employed in the plant, 45 of them were women. Wall-mounted kitchen scales were manufactured. The cooperation with the BSH Group started in 1974, and the result was the start of production of a mixer. In 1978 a considerable step forward was taken in the technological field. A line for the production of electro-motors for coffee grinders and mixers was set up. In that year already 284 workers were employed. On 21 February 1986 the 10^th millionth appliance was produced in MGA. It was an electric hand mixer.
