Bates Australia is a leading saddle manufacturer originally established in 1934. Bates Saddlery was formed when Mr. George Bates borrowed $100 from his sister, bought a sewing machine and began to make saddles on the veranda of his home in Perth, Western Australia.[1] Bates Australia is the parent company to Bates Saddles and Wintec.[2]
The family-owned business, located in Perth, Western Australia, has expanded into many international markets and can now be found in 36 countries around the world.[3]
