Very lucky to have had a shout out from the MTA! Canโt thank them enough for how they support our business and the structure they offer to train our apprentices ๐๐
Meet Our Member: Broadacre Automotive Katanning
From a dream to one of the Great Southern's growing automotive businesses, Broadacre Auto Electrics is an example of what dedication, hard work and local support can achieve.
Owner Caleb Murray started his journey by completing his apprenticeship with Narrogin Auto Electrics, earning Apprentice of the Year recognition along the way. What began as weekend work operating from the back of his Ford Falcon steadily grew into a full-time business, servicing farms and regional customers across the Great Southern.
Caleb expanded from mobile auto electrical and air conditioning services into a fully equipped workshop and retail store in Katanning. Broadacre Auto Electrics offers auto electrical services, air conditioning repairs, 4x4 fit-outs and accessories, while continuing to support local customers both in the workshop and on-farm.
Caleb's fiancรฉe, Jessica Clark, joined the business and now manages administration, accounts and the front-of-house operations. Together, Caleb and Jess have built a true family business, with daughter Isla keeping the team on their toes as the self-appointed "Workshop Manager."
Broadacre Auto Electrics is proud to employ MTA WA Apprentice Fletcher Lewis Ball, who was nominated for the Rising Star Award in 2026. Investing in the next generation of automotive professionals is helping ensure strong skills remain in the region for years to come
Built on the values of trust, quality workmanship and customer service, Broadacre Auto Electrics has earned a reputation as a trusted local business. Caleb and his team are helping customers access high-quality automotive and 4x4 solutions without needing to travel to metropolitan centres
Locally owned. Built on trust. Driven by experience
We're proud to recognise Broadacre Auto Electrics as an MTA WA member business and celebrate their commitment to supporting apprenticeships and strengthening the automotive industry in regional Western Australia
