Magnet Mart

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Magnet Mart is a company which operates large hardware stores around Canberra and southern New South Wales in Australia. The first store with the Magnet Mart name was opened in 1985 in Queanbeyan, although stores which later became Magnet Marts were opened as the Paul's Home Centres in Phillip in 1972 and Belconnen in 1976. A large 13,500 m2 store in Gungahlin opened in 2002. A large store was also opened in Griffith in the Riverina region of New South Wales in 2005. This store was sold out to Bunnings Warehouse in August 2006.

Magnet Mart television advertisements feature prominently in Canberra with the "Magnet Mart Guy" Brendan Sloan and the "Always cheaper cheaper Oy!" slogan.
