History of Southcott Pty. Ltd.

Southcott Pty Limited was founded in Adelaide, South Australia in 1886 as a general engineering business by two brothers, James and Albert Southcott. Over a century later, the company remains entirely owned by the Southcott family and has expanded extensively around the original factory site, as well as operating Australia wide sales offices and service centres in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane, Newcastle, Devonport, Emerald and Perth.

Involvement in hydraulics began in 1954 with the design and development of axial piston pumps and motors. The Company remains the only Australian manufacturer of these complex units. State of the art facilities are now provided for hydraulic equipment manufacture, including complex manifold circuits and a wide range of hose coupling swaging machines up to 500 tonne capacity.

Southcott Cycle Division ceased the production of bicycles in the mid nineties due to economic climax and turned their focus on marketing and selling state of the art international brands. Southcott Cycle division now operates from two main distribution warehouses, Adelaide and Melbourne, supplying bicycles and parts and accessories to the independent bicycle shops across Australia.
