The Spare Change story began in 2005 with just a single store and a big idea – to bring quality products direct to the public at warehouse prices. There are no fancy fixtures or fittings at Spare Change stores – we keep costs down, operate on low margins, and pass the savings to our valuable customers.
Spare Change aims to be your one stop shop, with a huge range of products at warehouse prices including furniture, electrical, homeware, kitchenware, stationery, pet products, garden products, tools, and more!
There are four core business concepts underpinning the Spare Change business model:
-
Take action first and work out the details later
-
Economies of scale – the key to building wealth
-
Let suppliers make money and let customers save money
-
Minimise costs as much as possible and pass the savings on to the customer
In these tough economic times, we see many other Australian retailers closing down. But the Spare Change business continues to be successful through innovative restructuring and always staying true to our four core business concepts.
Our growth is supported by investors and business partners who share our vision. Today, Spare Change continues to own and operates retail stores across Melbourne and Victoria. We also have strategic alliances with numerous different business partners using the “stores within stores” concept, complemented by our dedicated retail management and supply business.
