Strategic Partnership Total Tools operates within a national, multi-store network with a recent strategic partnership history (Metcash acquisition, Commonwealth Bank collaboration). This points to opportunities for co-branded promotions, business financing options, and cross-sell of professional tools and services to tradies through partner channels.

Trade-focused Growth With over 120 stores and a large tradesperson audience, there is strong potential to expand B2B and contractor program sales, bulk purchasing, and loyalty incentives targeting professional users and small business fleets.

Digital Engagement Adopted tech stack includes analytics and experience tooling (IBM Cognos Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, Crazy Egg, SAP, AfterPay). This enables targeted marketing, personalized promotions, and streamlined checkout experiences to boost online and in-store conversion for high-velocity tool categories.

Leadership Transition CEO transition in early 2024 and ongoing executive leadership focus present an opening for sales teams to engage during onboarding cycles, propose strategic initiatives, and position Total Tools as a vendor that supports scale and modernization in the tool retail space.

Recognition & Accessibility Recent awards for Tradeswomen of the Year and active industry partnerships highlight Total Tools’ brand visibility and inclusivity. Leverage these credentials in co-marketing, customer education programs, and differentiated product assortments to attract new contractors and female-led trades teams.
