About Mr. Rental
Details
Mr Rental's story starts back in 1991 when the company was founded by Glen and Kerrianne Hickman, on Bribie Island, just an hour north of Brisbane on the Sunshine Coast, in Queensland, Australia.
Glen & Kerrianne had originally moved to Bribie Island in 1983 for the lifestyle and to raise a family. It was here that they started their first business venture opening a local video library and then also running the local chicken takeaway. They started renting appliances such as VCRs and TVs from their store and soon realized they were making more from appliance rentals than video rentals. They sold the video store and opened Mr Rental.
For ten years, this enterprising husband and wife team built their business in their local community, developing and optimizing their Mr Rental systems.
In 2001 they took the bold move to start franchising, with a vision for Mr Rental to become 'the world’s first choice in home appliance renting'.
Within two years they had over 30 stores throughout Australia and New Zealand, growing to over 50 stores today.
Mr Rental has always been heavily involved in the local community and Glen and Kerrianne have always encouraged this culture of giving back, throughout the Mr Rental network.
