**About Us**
For over 30 years, Total Tools has taken the tool industry by storm, powering independent businesses to build a network of ultimate tools shops.
It began with 8 stores, and 8 mates, who named their small but mighty group of tool shops Total Tools in the 1990’s. These 8 mates had big ideas, and they, or their families, are still part of our network of stores today and this small idea has grown to a network of over 112 stores across Australia, with a best-in-class Loyalty Program, and #1 in Trade Tools in Australia. In 2020, we joined the Metcash group, aligned with our success not really being about us.

All of us at Total Tools are part of something bigger. That keeps us pumped up, because we know the future is bright and it’s only getting better.
