How it all happened...
Brothers Shaun and Darren shared a dream of breaking into internet retail – they also shared a great dislike for endless hours wasted trying to find the perfect gift. Where was all the good stuff…the fun stuff…the smart stuff…the latest stuff?
So in 2003, with one room, one phone and one computer, LatestBuy was born - delivering the latest and greatest products from around the world to an idea-hungry Australian marketplace. With only 20 products to launch their website, items like the Namco 5-in-1 Retro Joystick and Iraqi Playing Cards were an instant hit Australia-wide. As their range grew, so did their office – moving into their first warehouse in 2005, which was quickly doubled in size in 2007.
Now with a large range of unique gifts represented across 13 main categories, LatestBuy continues to grow rapidly, leading to the launch of LatestBuy's dedicated wholesale brand Trendtastic in 2007 (with hot promotional products for Australia) and men's gifts brand HisGifts in 2012.
