About CBI Blinds & Awnings Warners Bay

A Trusted Australian Brand Since 1963

CBI Blinds was founded in Melbourne in 1963 with a simple focus: delivering high-quality Venetian blinds. Over time, the business expanded its product range to include awnings, roller blinds and vertical blinds, growing into a trusted name with branches across Australia. Originally established by John Wilson, CBI Blinds built its reputation on quality workmanship and reliable service.

Local Ownership, Personal Service

In the late 1990s, the business entered a new phase when it was sold to a major supplier who introduced an employee-ownership model. This allowed passionate team members to take ownership of their local branches, bringing a more personal, community-focused approach to customers. Today, CBI Blinds & Awnings Warners Bay operates as an independent, family-owned and operated business, proudly affiliated with some of Australia’s largest manufacturers.
