Probably the best part for me is that the people that walk through the door, you know, your customer base Just to see those people come back year after year and then their families and see their families grow and it's a very family driven business

Stephen Rowe:

Dad signed up with Darren, on the morning Darren started his job, Darren Arthur. So, we were the first member back in the day for South Australia. Being part of it and watching it grow and reaping a lot of those rewards is pretty awesome. Probably the best part for me is that the people that walk through the door, you know, your customer base.

Your very long-serving, loyal customer base. Just to see those people come back year after year and then their families and see their families grow and it's a very family driven business, this one and, that's probably where I get my most enjoyment is just out of you know, keeping in touch with people. Like most of us at Capricorn, I’d like to take the opportunity to thank them for what they've done because it has been, just so rewarding.

You do your normal job every day and you just do what you do, buy your parts from wherever you're getting them from. From the Capricorn suppliers. You don't have to think about what you're doing. And in the background, Capricorn just grows.

Just keep doing what you're doing and do it well.

    If you want to have a business in a small country town, you've got to be willing to adapt and try and help the customer where you can.
