At the first, they have only eleven employees in the tiny office but now Acer has more than 300 employees working in offices in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Dubai and Delhi. It is originally located in Collins Street, Melbourne until 1958, but then they moved in Lonsdale Street, where the company moved eight kilometers from central Melbourne to Hawthorn in 1963, then they moved in nearby Camberwell in 1994.
