Eagers’ origins trace back to 1913 when Edward Eager and his son, Frederic, founded their family automotive business, E.G. Eager & Son Ltd, which continues today as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Eagers Automotive Limited. After establishing the first motor vehicle assembly plant in Queensland in 1922, the business secured the distributorship of General Motors’ products in Queensland and northern New South Wales in 1930 and listed as a public company in 1957 under the name Eagers Holdings Limited. A merger in 1992 with the listed A.P. Group Limited saw the addition of a number of new franchises and our name change to A.P. Eagers Limited. Further new franchises and geographic diversification followed. In 2019 we celebrated the amalgamation of AP Eagers Limited (APE) and Automotive Holdings Group (AHG) coming together to become one connected entity now named Eagers Automotive Limited – and as a result have entered into our next chapter with a sense of purpose and as a stronger, and united team striving toward our shared common goal of success. With the merger in 2019 with AHG, Eagers Automotive has grown substantially to be the number one automotive group in Australia which includes significant presence in every state and additional locations within New Zealand. EA has commenced the design phase for our automotive retailing and mobility hub which will be set on over 90000m2 of land in Brisbane Airport’s new $300 million BNE Auto Mall. The Automall precinct will provide a world-class automotive retailing experience for our customers of the future. By investing in world leading projects like the Brisbane Auto Mall and race track precinct set to launch in 2023 will catapult us to the next level of automotive retailing.
