Founded in Cape Town, South Africa in 2012, OmniBlend was launched by Jan Folmer, driven by frustration with blenders that inevitably failed after warranty and lacked meaningful support he could rely on.
Folmer’s mission: deliver powerful, durable blending solutions built to last—not just through warranty periods, but for years. His goal was to blend commercial-grade performance with local service and affordability, ultimately turning OmniBlend into a trusted name in South African kitchens and beyond
