Haircare Group has proudly celebrated its 50^th birthday, with the business founded in 1974 by Geoff and Jan Gauvin as built to offer innovative and professional products to the hair industry. Haircare Group has thrived for 50 years as a true partner to its clients, beyond their distribution.

“It’s the reason we still exist – to partner with salon professionals, offering real value that makes a difference to their business lives, personal lives and the community we share,” said Managing Director Garth Gauvin. “The past five decades have been a testament to our values and our enduring business mission to put our customers at the heart of everything we do. As we look forward, we are excited to grow further whilst continuing to strengthen our connection within the professional hair community that has been an integral part of our story so far.”

Haircare Group employs 220 people across Australia and New Zealand, servicing over 12,000 salons and hair professionals with salon exclusive products, education, and tailored business solutions. The organisation leads study tours and business summits, and partners with brands such as Moroccanoil, Lakmé, Olaplex, Evo and Color Wow in its products, innovations and education initiatives.

“There have been so many suppliers, vendors, our team and customers, who have contributed to the Haircare Group and supported our growth, without them we would not be where we are today,” Garth shared. “As we celebrate 50 years in business, it’s a special occasion for reflection and celebration on what has been achieved by the team over the years.”

The company celebrated with a gala event with over 220 employees, including all generations of the Gauvin family, with celebrations to continue through the year and extend to customers. Look out for unique initiatives such as the opportunity for salons to win a host of prizes including $500 credits to their accounts in July, a ‘golden ticket’ surprise and vouchers.

In honour of the milestone, Haircare Group continues to move forward with new roles and responsibilities for the family and team, effective immediately. Ward Gauvin transitions to the Managing Director of Haircare Group and Garth Gauvin assumes the position of Managing Director for Gauvin Group, which is a group of companies that work together under a single umbrella for improved productivity, efficiency and long-term scalability.

“These changes are about supporting family transition and having the right focus in the right areas of the business for ongoing future success and growth. I am looking forward to Ward taking the reins at Haircare Group with many more years of success to come,” Garth said.

Congratulations to the team!
