Introduction
You may recognise the name “Jessupsâ€, that is because we have been in business of for over 75 years in Launceston, Tasmania. Our history is loooooong with plenty of details that John will tell at length given half a chance. But for you, we’ll keep it short!
Where did it start? Believe it or not, Jessups started in 1939 when Mark Jessup started selling light globes from his push bike! Mark grew the business into a state-wide presence making Jessups a household name as an electrical appliance retailer.
When John Thirgood took over the business in 1984 he reinvigorated Jessups by partnering with Retravision. John drove the Jessups brand by continuing to focus on superior customer service from it’s Launceston and George Town premises.
Where top brands cost less and genuine service is guaranteed
Over the years Jessups has diversified and often led the market to bring Tasmanians the best in electrical. As a fan of innovation, Jessups was always one of the first to stock the newest technologies, whether it was new fangled VCRs , C64 computers (remember those!), mobile phones, bread makers, electric tooth brushes and play stations.
Staying in the forefront, it was perhaps a natural progression that we realised the potential of using reverse cycle air conditioners to heat in the cold Tasmanian climate. With Jessups naming them “heat pumps“, slowly but surely Tasmanian’s began to catch on. Today, the affectionately named “heat pump†is now Tasmania’s first choice for space heating.
Jessups Solar Squad CarsAs affordable solar energy generation became accessible, we quickly recognised the opportunity for Tasmanians to take control of their energy. Adding solar power and LED lighting to our already extensive range of products, we embraced the future direction in electrical. We sorted out the complications of rebates, compliance, etc, to bring reliable and trusted systems to thousands of savvy customers.
Moving with the times, in 2013 Jessups left behind the old electricity munching appliances to focus solely on solar and energy efficient solutions.
Now in the new premises on Wellington Street, the Jessups Solar Squad team remain committed to providing quality energy solutions that are suited to the Tasmanian environment.
Having been in the solar business for over 13 years now, we have installed 1000’s of solar systems and well over 10,000 heat pumps across Tasmania!
