The company was founded on 1 September 1925 by 16-year-old Willy Müller and the master toolmaker August Busch, later a local group leader of the NSDAP, for the purpose of producing cat's eyes, which had become legally required equipment for bicycles.

Busch & Müller is the world market leader in the field of bicycle lighting. Its product range now includes: reflectors, tail lights, bicycle headlights, dynamos, rear-view mirrors, gear case, side support wheels for children's bicycles and other bicycle accessories. In total, Busch & Müller manufactures more than 500 different products for the bicycle industry.
The company's new developments include automatic lights (automatically turned on and off by means of a light-dark sensor) and free-form surface headlamps for bicycles. These are headlamps with a clear lens, whereby the light distribution is taken over by a computer-calculated mirror reflector. For some years now, LED headlamps have also been available for bicycles, which also use free-form reflectors to bundle the light. Their light is wider and brighter than that of conventional bicycle headlamps. The company has also recently developed a rear light for hub dynamos with integrated brake light. In 2007, Busch & Müller developed the first gas discharge headlamp for bicycles that meets the requirements of the German Highway Code.
