Clark Rubber celebrates 75th anniversary by giving away free swimming pools

December 1st, 2021

Australian swimming pool retailer Clark Rubber – best known for being a one-stop shop for all things pools, foam, and rubber – is celebrating its 75th birthday milestone by offering its customers a chance to win some amazing prizes.

Each week from October 31 to January 23, one lucky customer will win a 10ft Intex round pool valued at $250.

Additionally, one lucky person will also win a retro caravan, renovated by Retro Caravan Renovations and valued at $40,000, so they can travel in luxury and style on all their future camping adventures.

Anyone can enter with any purchase online or instore by scanning the QR code on their receipt. Every entry goes in the draw to win pools, which are drawn every Thursday, as well as the caravan.

To set the competition in motion, Clark Rubber held community barbecues across the country, and at their Nunawading, Victoria store, held a family friendly event including a life size pool erected for swimming and swim safety lessons, a pool giveaway on the day and the Channel Nine Weekend Today Show’s Lauren Phillips covered the event, reporting the weather live all morning.

CEO Anthony Grice says that over the past 75 years, Clark Rubber has grown from a small Aussie retailer into one of Australia’s most well-known, trusted and intergenerational brands.

“Not only have we been serving Australians for the past 75 years, but we have also provided an opportunity for many people to own and run their own small business through our franchising network,” he says.

“We have recently re-opened our stores again across the country and we are expecting a very strong summer of sales as Australians look to entertain in their own homes and backyards, with pools and spas a must-have item.”

He says that since the Clark Rubber business took on new ownership just over a year ago, it has transformed seven sites to new company stores, and earmarked a further 20 greenfield sites, with substantial interest from individuals looking to buy into the brand and start their own business.

They have also started up their new Premium Territory Pool & Spa service vans which have achieved great success during the pandemic.
