What is AASDN?

The Australian Automotive Service Dealers Network (AASDN) is a cooperative association that has supported independent automotive workshops for more than 30 years through training, mentoring, collaboration and industry connections.

Running an automotive business can be challenging. Workshop owners face ongoing pressures including skills shortages, rapidly changing vehicle technology, increasing training and equipment costs, and the need to build and maintain customer trust.

AASDN was established by a group of workshop owners in Western Australia and New South Wales who recognised the value of working together. By sharing technical knowledge, business advice and industry experience, members can strengthen their businesses, support one another and provide a higher standard of service to their customers.

Today, AASDN has grown into a national network of more than 160 leading automotive workshops and specialist businesses.
