Rural Quip is a dynamic business which has a dedication to providing the Burdekin community with an abundance of materials to ensure each customer can efficiently fulfill their industrial and farming supply needs.
Robert and Annette Oar have owned and operated Rural Quip for 43 years and in coming from a farming background, are highly experienced and knowledgeable on all aspects of the business’s operations, product ranges, and the demands of the Burdekin community.
Rural Quip’s product range holds everything their customers need on a day-to-day basis and more and paired with their connections with the AIS National Buying Group, Rural Quip effectively competes with all levels of business.
Robert began his working life as a boilermaker at Kalamia Mill. After completing his apprenticeship, he purchased Andersen Engineering which he then relocated from Rossiter Street to the Industrial Estate, renaming the business to what its known and loved as today to Rural Quip.
In following the shifting flow of the business landscape, Robert adapted with the economic trends within engineering circles to make a transitional move into the retail industry. Moving forward into the retail sector, the pair made the decision to join the AIS National Buying Group to further grow their business and ultimately benefit their customers.
“Joining the AIS National Buying Group in 1998 was a huge move forward, giving access to new deals, new suppliers, and meeting a network of other retail businesses around Australia,” explained Robert.
With just under a century of experience in the industry, both Robert and Annette have created a business to be celebrated, with a customer base extending from Bowen to Woodstock to Giru.
“The market is strong with this rich agricultural area, and our staff work on a very strong model to have the goods required in stock, carrying on demand for common products and services,” said Robert.
