In 1994 Coastal Hire opened its doors, with only five stores and offered an unique concept to the Tool Hire market. The main focus of the brand was to provide hire alternative on all types of power tools; construction equipment and garden and home tools that appealed to the DIY enthusiast.

The concept proved to be an immediate success and a demand for greater expansion was the start of Coastal Hire's success story. Coastal Hire has now become the choice name for large construction companies, contractors, bakkie builders, electricians, plumbers, tilers and the DIY enthusiast. The wide spread of stores throughout Southern Africa make Coastal Hire a convenient place to hire from.
