The concept of an all-encompassing music equipment retailer, offering the best value for money, widest product range, and friendly, professional service was first conceived by Hearn Joselyn in the early 1990’s. In 1993 Music Mate was born.
With a long legacy of successful Business Management and Franchising, Hearn has succeeded in creating a group of music equipment stores that offer consistently high levels of customer service and value across the board.
16 years later, Music Mate is hands down the largest and most successful group of its kind in Africa, boasting 8 state-of-the-art stores throughout Southern Africa, with more to come in the near future.
The fundamental principal behind Music Mate’s unprecedented success is that each and every store is part-owned by those who manage it, thus ensuring only the best service and attention at all times.
Music Mate hand-picks its Franchisees, and boasts some of South Africa’s finest and most experienced musicians among its ranks. This ensures Music Mate’s promise of ‘Sound Advice’ to anyone who visits our stores, whether beginner or professional, musician or DJ, producer or hobbyist.
Each store is individually designed and equipped to cater for the unique demographics and needs of its market, whilst still conforming to the winning Music Mate formula -proven over 16 years of success.
