Brad Smith Biography
Brad Smith is an Australian entrepreneur and former motocross rider, who founded the motocross brand “braaap”. In 2010 he was named Young Australian of the Year for Tasmania, Australian Young Entrepreneur of the year and International Young Entrepreneur of the year runner up.
In 2008 Smith launched the first braaap store, a retail outlet intended to be “the motocross equivalent of a surf shop”. braaap expanded to a peak of four retail outlets across Tasmania and Victoria.
Despite having little international business experience and no distribution channels, upon turning 18 Smith embarked on a two-week venture to liaise with Chinese motorcycle manufacturers. He was ridiculed by dozens by business managers but eventually found a manufacturing plant willing to support his vision.
braaap motorcycles are now manufactured in China. The motorcycles are assembled locally by mechanics in Braaap stores to ensure quality and reliability. The first braaap store opened in Launceston in 2005, with additional Tasmanian stores in Hobart and Devonport, and another in Frankston, Victoria.
Frustrated by finance companies tightening as result of the Global Financial Crisis, Bradley established Adrenalin Plan during 2010 to divide the cost of purchasing a motorcycle into weekly payments. Mostly known for its redundant $3 a day marketing campaign, Adrenalin Plan was initially successful.
During 2011 Adrenalin Plan partnered with a private equity company and re-launched in 2012 under new branding.
