About US
ABOUT US
In the past De Graaf Exhaust Systems allowed stockists of our products to use the name "De Graaf" at free will. Although it seemed a good idea at the time, in practice this never worked, because some outlets did the name proud and others not. As a result of this, market trends and at several of our customer's requests it was decided to form a separate company called De Graaf Under-Car.
In June 1999 an independent franchise was formed and registered, known as De Graaf Under-Car.
Why the name De Graaf Under-Car?
In the early years exhaust fitment centres only fitted exhaust systems, but increased competition over the years changed this trend and more and more fitment centres were compelled to diversify into other product lines.
Through the years De Graaf Exhausts Systems has built up a well-known brand name, but the name was mainly associated with exhaust systems. Although exhausts still form a major part of a fitment centre’s sales, to compete in this market it is vital to fit and supply a bundle of products. It was then decided that a different name was needed so that the consumer could associate the fitment centres with other products besides exhausts, yet maintain the advantage of the De Graaf brand name associated with exhausts, hence the name Under-Car.
Why Franchising was decided upon?
At the end of 1998 a meeting was held with several of our independent customers to determine whether or not franchising “De Graaf” should be considered. It was also realised that independents had a distinct disadvantage to Franchised outlets. At the end of this meeting a vote was cast and there was an overwhelming response in favour of franchising.
