About this opportunity
Acquiring Pedders Townsville means immediate results. You'll step into an established business with proven systems, a loyal customer base, and the backing of one of Australia's most trusted automotive brands—delivering credibility and cash flow from day one.
Complete specialisation in undercar systems sets Pedders apart from general automotive service centres. This singular focus has made Pedders the undisputed expert in suspension, steering, brakes, and everything that keeps vehicles safely on the road—delivering a powerful competitive advantage you can leverage from day one.
For over three decades, the Townsville location has weathered economic cycles, adapted to changing market conditions, and consistently delivered value to thousands of satisfied customers. In an industry where businesses come and go, three decades of continuous operation speaks volumes.
You'll inherit a proven business model refined over 30 years locally and 75 years nationally. Pedders hasn't survived and thrived since 1950 by accident—the company has spent over seven decades perfecting undercar specialization, building a genuine Australian success story with staying power.
Business Story
Pedders Townsville offers an extensive range of Pedders-branded products engineered specifically for passenger cars, SUVs, four-wheel drives, and light commercial vehicles. This comprehensive coverage ensures you never turn away a customer because their vehicle doesn't fit your offering.
From family sedans to tradies' utes to serious off-road four-wheel drives—Pedders delivers. Every solution enhances performance, improves handling, and extends vehicle life, while the competitive pricing positions you to win business against both budget and premium competitors.
One of the most compelling advantages of this business is its dual revenue stream. While many automotive businesses depend solely on retail walk-in traffic—leaving them vulnerable during slow periods—Pedders Townsville thrives on diversification. You'll serve retail customers directly alongside a robust wholesale customer base, including mechanical workshops, auto electricians, and other trade businesses that depend on your expertise and products. This two-channel approach delivers stability and reliable cash flow.
The company has developed systems, processes, and operational frameworks with a proven track record. These methodologies cover everything from inventory management and supplier relationships to customer service protocols and marketing strategies. By implementing time-tested approaches that have generated success across dozens of Pedders locations throughout Australia, you dramatically reduce your risk compared to starting an independent venture where every system must be built from the ground up.
The support provided by the Pedders franchise network delivers value that independent operators simply cannot replicate. From day one, you'll access comprehensive support and continuous training programs designed to ensure your success. The Pedders team operates on a simple principle: your success is their success. This creates a true partnership where ongoing training keeps your team at the forefront of automotive technology, ready to service the latest vehicles and implement the newest products.

Phil started his working career in purchasing with large and multi-national companies in Sydney.
A family relocation to Bowen in 1974 was the catalyst to owning his own business.
Phil has been in various businesses from Pest Control to Delicatessen/Takeaway and has for the last 39 years built a wholesale business that has served Bowen, Whitsundays, Mackay and the Coalfields, from 1 truck and himself to 6 trucks and 15 employees.
This has given Phil a very solid knowledge of the area from Bowen to Rockhampton and what it takes to thrive in business there.
Phil has a strong knowledge of business and business practices built through the process of growing his own business as well as time spent on State Franchise Council and dealing with the many changing government policies in those 39 years.
The process of selling his own business has shown Phil the real need for a locally based business broker, easily contacted and heavily focused on the Central Queensland area, which has led to his involvement in CQ Business Brokers.
