Our history
Est. 1955
Ipswich Mower’s has a rich family history that dates back to the 1950s.
The journey beings with Vic Vermeer, who started sharpening guillotine knifes, tools, handsaws, and hand mower blades after work in his spare time. At the time, Mining & Hardware Supplies co. in Brisbane Street was the only depot where customers could leave their tools to be sharpened. So, after a while Vic decided to leave his then job at Scott’s Engineering and opened a sharpening and repair store in Limestone Street which he named - “Vermeer’s Engineering”.
He then when on to rent a shop on "The Terrace, North Ipswich" (next to the Strand Hotel) for two pounds a week and started operating under the name "Vermeer’s Lawnmower Sales and Service". Working together with Vic brother-in-law Tom Bowers, and with his wife Audrey, they started a weekly delivery service to printing presses throughout Brisbane & Ipswich, offering a guillotine knife grinding service along with selling Pace mowers and chainsaws. In 1972, Vermeer’s Lawnmower Sales and Service was renamed to Ipswich Mower & Saw Service PTY LTD and 1979, Vic took on a well-known German Chainsaw brand called STIHL to become one of the first Stihl Dealer in Ipswich.
Where we are today.
Today, Ipswich Mowers is still family-owned and operated by the Vermeer family, with Jon & Karen taking over from Vic and Audrey in 1991. Working alongside them was Jim, (Jon's Brother) and Chris, their sister.
In 2003 Ipswich Mowers moved to Yamanto and opened a brand-new shop front with STIHL, where we have continued to build upon the family business.
