About Independent Battery Distributors (IBD)
Independent Battery Distributors (IBD) commenced trading as a family business in 1984 as Apollo Batteries SA Pty Ltd in the northern suburb of Adelaide called Para Hills. In 1985, due to the rapid expansion of the business, the company relocated to the neighboring suburb of Pooraka, which now serves as the head office for the complete branch distribution network.
About 10 years later, the company’s trading name was changed to Independent Battery Distributors (IBD), and today it is recognized as one of Australia’s leading independent battery companies.
About Our Growth & Expansion
The South Australian operation was further strengthened in 1992. The first branch opened at Marion, SA which services the southern areas of Adelaide. With continued growth the company opened a second branch in Ballarat VIC. This soon relocated to Laverton VIC. And now is the head office for our Victorian operation, supported by both Frankston & Mildura branches providing complete state coverage.
- In July 1989, IBD opened a warehousing and distribution facility in Berrimah NT, further strengthening its position within the Australian battery industry. About 25 years later, due to continued growth, the operation relocated to a larger facility in Winnellie NT in 2014 to better support increasing demand and distribution requirements.
- The Tasmanian operation commenced in 2012 with the opening of our sixth branch in Derwent Park TAS & due to the growth of the Bosch program there was need to have a Distribution outlet for the state of Tasmania. Further expansion in the North is planned in the coming years.
- In May 2014 two new sub-stockiest stores in ACT & Wollongong to cover the Illawara region of NSW.
- In 2015 IBD opened its 8th Distribution Centre located at Wodonga to assist with the distribution & growth throughout regional NSW.
