About
How It Started
1989
Opening up shop out of the family home garage in Roseville, Steve Shepherd embarks on a new business venture - starting "North Shore Health and Fitness". At this point, the company operates exclusively as a fitness equipment rental company.
1990
As business starts to grow and Steve gains the trust of return customers, he moves North Shore Health and Fitness to a warehouse space in Frenchs Forest, NSW. Alongside his first hire Phil (Who still works with the company to this date), he expanded from exclusively hiring equipment to selling equipment outright.
1992
While delivering equipment to the North Sydney Bears training facility at North Sydney Oval, Steve notices a number of vacant shop fronts on the Miller Street frontage. He opens a new public facing retail space, which remains in this location to this day. Over the next three decades, North Shore Health and Fitness would see success in supplying customers across New South Wales and gaining momentum as a trusted retailer to many companies.
