ABOUT
WINKLES
HISTORY
Winkles was established in 1978 as a local Shopfitting company by Des and Jenny Kelly. The business initially commenced trading from their home garage in Morphett Vale, South Australia.
Inspired by Jenny’s Dutch heritage, the name comes from “Winkel,” the Dutch word for shop, reflecting the business’s initial focus on shop fitouts.
Des & Jenny successfully owned and operated the business for 35 years. Over that time, they outgrew serval factories before eventually building the purpose designed head office and warehouse the business operates from today.
Throughout these years, Des and Jenny welcomed their three children Josh, Hamish and Harmony into the business, instilling in them the company ethos of honesty, hard work and integrity.
In 2014 the business transitioned to second generation ownership
