THE RIGHT NAME IN HARDWARE...
FOR OVER 50 YEARS IN AUSTRALIA
It was on 29 June 1959, that our founding fathers met in Reg Buchanan's home in Balwyn, Victoria, where they made the historic decision to form a hardware/building supplier group. By forming Mitre 10, the foundation members etched their names in history as a part of a hardware industry transition from the independent to the group retailer.
The founding fathers were Jack Womersley, Tom Molomby, Tom Danaher, Reg Buchanan, and Ian Nisbet.
