This exciting development marks a significant milestone for the family-owned Australian business, as it seeks to better serve its customer base in the region.

The new store, covering over 4300sqm, will offer a wide range of machinery and equipment catering to various industries including metalworking, woodworking, automotive, and fabrication. This is the fifth Hare & Forbes Machinery House store in Australia, joining existing branches in Sydney, Perth, Melbourne and Brisbane.

“We’re really pleased to finally be trading in Adelaide,” says Rick Foster, General Manager. “This project has been in the plans for almost five years; it’s really exciting for us to invest in a brick-and-mortar store in a new location.”

The new store’s launch underscores Hare & Forbes’s dedication to innovation and growth, as well as its ongoing commitment to providing industry-leading solutions to its customers, as it has done for over 90 years. Through its extensive product offerings, knowledgeable staff, and dedication to customer service, Hare & Forbes aims to become the go-to destination for engineering machinery and accessories.

Store Manager Jim Burton brings a wealth of experience and will look after the almost-dozen full-time staff, which includes a CNC specialist and aftersales support. “After running my own machinery business for over two decades, it was an easy decision and great opportunity to join the team,” says Jim. “The interest we’ve had already from the public and my old customers has been incredible.”

As Hare & Forbes continues to expand its reach across Australia, the opening of the new store in Adelaide signals a bright future for the company and its commitment to serving the needs of engineering and manufacturing communities nationwide.
