Dubbo locals will remember the old Mower and Chainsaw businesses of Dubbo and of course the new Dubbo Mowers and Chainsaws now owned by the Brett family. The combined businesses have been part of the Dubbo community for some 75 years. The business name has changed but the Brett family offer the same old fashioned customer service which we’ve all grown to love.

"The original business was owned by Noel Burns and started by him in 1948. I'm not quite sure of the name of the business as I gather it was changed a couple of times as it was a more diverse business than we currently have. Ian Barden owned the business from 1977 until my father Peter and I purchased it on the 11 November 2002. The name of the business at that point was, Ian Barden's Mowers and Chainsaws. When we purchased the business we renamed it, Dubbo Mowers and Chainsaws. While it seems like yesterday it was 2006 when we purchased David Wybrow Mower & Chainsaw Centre from David Gavel. He had owned it for a number of years after purchasing it from the original owner, David Wybrow," owner David Brett said.

There’s been many challenges and constant changes in trends in the industry which the business has taken in its stride. Dubbo Mowers and Chainsaws is now the largest business of its kind in New South Wales and a testament to the strong work ethic and customer service David and his team provide week in week out. Their most popular products being ride on and push mowers, chainsaws and cordless products which provide opportunities to work remotely and without power.

Twenty years on David says he's still looking after the same people’s needs which is a true indication of the customer service David and his team pride themselves on. 

"The staff and the people over the years that you meet are the most important, not just the products you sell." 

David’s reward for his long-standing business ethics speaks volumes when you view each customer as they walk into the store and see how staff attentively greet and consider their needs individually, another testament to this iconic Dubbo business.
