Goodbye Carole Park © Alvey Reels

It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new FACTORY. And we're feelin' good!

This week we said goodbye to 45 years of memories at Carole Park as we begin making new memories (and of course, the world's best fishing reels) a short cast away at Darra.

Progress report

The trucks arrived and the move began with the odd tear spotted running down a cheek...

The first image from our new facility at Darra. We are beyond excited to be continuing the tradition of manufacturing in Australia as well as introducing some new modern equipment...

Please note, all online orders will be despatched at the end of next week.

We thank you again for your support and patience as we enter the next chapter of the Alvey Reels story.

Regards,
The Alvey Team
