The Autobarn franchise group is a major retail organisation within the Australian automotive aftermarket industry. Stores market comprehensive ranges of automotive parts and accessories, in-car entertainment systems, motor vehicle security systems, performance equipment, oils and additive products and body repair items and paint.

Autobarn began as a co-operative founded in Melbourne in 1985. The original group consisted of nine members with 11 retail stores between them, located in Melbourne and several major Victorian regional centres. The Autobarn franchise model was born in 1991 and has since grown to encompass 96 stores spread across five states and two territories.

There are many features to our franchise model. It provides those individuals who join our network with assurance that we will assist them through the acquisition of their business, then subsequently support them through the growth phases of their business via the guidance of professional support staff and the fostering of a network of individuals who impart knowledge to peers as a result of their own experiences.

As the Autobarn system grows and strives to promote best practice franchising and retailing techniques, it is important to remember that the initial vision of the foundation shareholders to franchise the Autobarn concept stands true today: “to provide opportunities for small to medium size businesses to compete, be profitable and grow by being part of a strong retail franchise group”.

We, at Autobarn, provide a comprehensive support and training culture and an inherent belief that if the franchisee is profitable, then the franchisor is successful. It has been proven time and time again, that if the franchisor provided services are embraced by the operator, these expectations, in nearly every circumstance, are met.
