CEO’s message October is an exciting month for New Zealand, with the launch of our New Zealand State of the Nation Report and the opportunity to bring Members, Suppliers and industry partners together at our Trade Show and Gala Dinner. State of the Nation is an important opportunity to share what we have learnt from our Members. The insights gathered help guide Capricorn's advocacy priorities and inform the practical ways we support our Community. By understanding what's happening in workshops and businesses across New Zealand, we can continue to focus on the issues that matter most and help build a stronger future for our industry. Thank you to everyone who contributed to the research this year. I’m also looking forward to our Auckland Trade Show & Gala Dinner, bringing together more of our New Zealand community than ever before in a new location. This event provides a valuable opportunity to connect, share ideas, learn about the latest products and innovations, and strengthen the relationships that are at the heart of our cooperative. The sense of camaraderie at these events is always something special. Another highlight this month is Rising Stars. I am looking forward to announcing our very first Overall Rising Star winner from New Zealand. This is an important milestone for Capricorn and a great opportunity to recognise the talented apprentices and supportive workshops helping to develop the next generation of automotive professionals. As skills shortages continue to challenge our industry, investing in and celebrating emerging talent has never been more important.

THE BUSINESS OF
Helping People For Oleseni and Sharon Vaikaka, every repair starts with the person behind the wheel.
M
any assume an automotive workshop is simply about fixing cars, and on one level they're right. But after years in the industry, Oleseni Vaikaka has come to see things a little differently. As director of the family-owned workshop he runs alongside his wife, Sharon, Oleseni knows that every vehicle comes with a story attached. It might belong to a tradie trying to get to work on time, a parent juggling school dropoffs and weekend sport, or a family just looking to get through the week without unexpected problems. It’s a perspective that has shaped FastFix Automotive since the couple first opened the doors. Together, they’ve built a business around a simple belief: when you repair a vehicle, you're helping a person get where they need to be. "It's always excitement to get out there and help our people with their cars," Oleseni says. "To help their family, to repair their car, to get them where they want to go."
That mindset sits at the heart of FastFix Automotive, a South Auckland workshop that has built a strong reputation for honest advice, quality workmanship and dependable service over the past eight years. From routine servicing and wheel alignments to diagnostics, mechanical repairs and electrical work, the team focuses on giving customers confidence every time they drive away.
A dream shared by family The business itself began with a dream. "It was a dream came true," Oleseni says. "My brother Moses Tupou, he helped me make this dream happen to become a business owner. It's a big achievement for us." While Oleseni spends his days on the tools, Sharon helps manage the business behind the scenes. Together, they have guided FastFix through the challenges and opportunities that come with owning a workshop, creating a business built on trust, consistency and strong customer relationships.

That focus on people has resonated throughout the local community. FastFix has earned a 4.9-star Google rating, attracted a loyal customer base and been recognised with a monthly Ōtāhuhu Business Award for customer service. For Oleseni and Sharon, those achievements are less about recognition and more about knowing customers trust them with some of the most important vehicles in their lives. After all, most customers are not thinking about wheel alignments or brake components when they visit a workshop. They're thinking about getting the kids to school, arriving safely at work, making an appointment on time or heading away for the weekend without worrying about a breakdown.
Staying strong through tough times Like many automotive business owners across New Zealand, the past few years have tested FastFix's resilience. Economic pressures created uncertainty for businesses and customers alike, forcing workshop owners to balance rising costs with ongoing investment in equipment and training. "From the past couple of years, when the economy hit and the economy is kind of struggling, it was a challenge for us to keep going," Oleseni says. Despite those challenges, he remained focused on moving forward. "So far we keep moving with faith," he says. "And with training and equipment, it will help us to improve our capability and our potential to keep thriving in this industry." His outlook reflects what many workshop owners across the country continue to experience. Even during difficult periods, businesses are investing in technology, skills and people to ensure they can meet the changing needs of motorists. For FastFix, that investment is driven by a belief that standing still is not an option.

CAPRICORN IGNITION O CTOBER 2026
Investing in the future Like many workshop owners, Oleseni is focused on making sure the business continues to grow alongside the industry. Recent years have seen FastFix invest in both equipment and training, including a new wheel alignment machine. "We just bought a latest wheel alignment machine through Capricorn," Oleseni says. "I would like to say thanks to the team for making this dream happen." The new addition expands the workshop's capabilities and reflects Oleseni's belief that standing still isn't an option in a changing industry.
"We can't use the old tools anymore," he says. "We need to upgrade our tools, equipment and the technician knowledge as well." With vehicle technology continuing to evolve, ongoing training remains a major focus for the business, helping ensure the team has the knowledge and confidence to tackle whatever comes through the workshop doors. For Oleseni, embracing change is simply another way of looking after customers and the community that has supported FastFix for nearly a decade. "Helping people is the main purpose for us in this industry." After more than eight years in business, that's a philosophy that continues to guide the workshop every day.

Succession Planning:
Preparing Your Workshop to Run Without You By Jeff Smit
N
othing is certain except for death and taxes – please add to that list retirement and what's going to happen to the business you have built up over your lifetime. Too many workshop owners put retirement, extended holidays and succession planning into their "one day" basket. For many, that "one day" may already have come and gone. On my training-gig travels around Australia I have met many experienced workshop owners approaching retirement age who have no clear plan for leaving their business, not even for a welldeserved extended break. Some hope that a family member will eventually take over. Others assume an employee will buy the workshop. Many expect to put the business on the market when they have had enough. None of those options are a good idea without planning. I understand why succession planning keeps getting pushed aside. Planning your own departure rarely seems as urgent as getting today’s work out the door. Succession planning is not simply about selling the business. It starts with creating a workshop that can operate without the owner being physically present every day.
8
CAPRICORN IGNITION O CTOBER 2026
The first test – a proper break A good first test is surprisingly simple: Could you take a holiday and leave your phone at home? Many workshop owners are technically away, but remain involved in every decision that has to be made back in the workshop.
Get the workshop out of your head In many independent workshops much of the business exists only in the owner’s memory. That knowledge needs to be transferred into systems and procedures.
Therefore, the first stage of succession planning should be learning to step away for short periods. Start with one day a week, then a long weekend, and eventually an extended holiday without your phone or access to emails.
Document the workshop’s important procedures, including booking vehicles, preparing estimates, ordering parts, authorising additional work, invoicing, handling comebacks, managing warranties and following up outstanding accounts.
Before leaving, identify every task that normally requires your involvement. Decide who will handle each responsibility and give that person enough authority to act. There is little value in delegating responsibility if the employee still needs permission for everyday decisions.
Good business practice recommends documenting policies, procedures and processes so vital knowledge does not disappear when the owner walks out the door. It also recommends planning for a sudden transition in case illness, injury or any unexpected event that might prevent the owner from returning to work.
Create clear guidelines covering matters such as purchasing limits, customer discounts, warranty claims, problem jobs and customer complaints.
A succession plan is not much use if the business grinds to a stop because one person is no longer there.
When you return, review what worked and what did not. In my experience, you will be surprised that the staff took care of things, work got done and bills got paid.
Build a management structure The next step is to stop being the answer to every question. A management structure might include a workshop manager or
foreman, service adviser and administration or accounts person. In a smaller operation, one employee may cover several of these responsibilities. The titles are less important than clearly defining who is accountable for what. The owner should gradually move from managing individual jobs to reviewing the overall performance of the business. That requires a simple set of meaningful figures, including sales, gross profit, labour recovery, technician productivity, average repair order, outstanding debtors, comeback rates and forward bookings. If the business cannot be understood without the owner walking through the workshop and looking at every job, it is not yet ready for succession. Potential new managers must be allowed to make decisions, and occasionally make mistakes. Owners who continually overrule their managers contribute to a culture where employees simply wait for instructions rather than accept responsibility. The objective is not to become irrelevant. It is to make the workshop less dependent on one person.
Decide what succession means to you
Succession is a process, not an event
There is no single exit path. The business might pass to a family member, be sold to an employee, transferred to a business partner or purchased by an external buyer.
Perhaps the hardest part of succession planning is emotional. The workshop is a major part of the owner's identity. The customer and employee relationships may have been built up over decades.
The departing owner must decide what they want to happen, what role they want after stepping back, who should run the business and when they intend to leave. Putting a sound succession plan in place can take several years or more. A potential buyer is not simply buying hoists, scan tools and workshop equipment. They are buying future earnings and a reputation. That means the most valuable workshop is generally one with reliable financial records, competent employees, documented systems, a stable customer base and minimal dependence on the departing owner. Start by ensuring the financial accounts accurately reflect the performance of the business. Separate personal expenditure from genuine business costs and make sure stock, equipment, liabilities and employee entitlements are correctly recorded.
That is why succession should happen gradually. Take the holidays. Develop the managers. Document the systems. Reduce the workshop’s dependence on you and decide what you want your life to look like after fixing cars. The real measure of a successful workshop is not simply how well it operates while the owner is present. It is whether the business, its employees and its customers can continue to prosper after the owner has stepped away. Don't wait until retirement becomes unavoidable. Plan your exit while you still have the time, energy and control to do it properly.

Jaeden Matteo D'Aloia
VIC TAS
Victoria/Tasmania
To become an exceptional apprentice, you've got to work for it. That's something Jaeden Matteo D'Aloia from Technique Automotive knows all too well. Most mornings, Jaeden arrives at the workshop well before 6:30am, often more than two hours before his shift starts. By the time the rest of the team arrives, the floors are cleaned, tools are organised and the workshop is ready for the day ahead. Working in a specialised European workshop, Jaeden has quickly developed a reputation for being methodical, patient and eager to learn. Technique Automotive owner Alexander Hicks noticed it from day one. "On the very first day Jaeden confidently introduced himself to the team, put his phone away in his bag and made the outstanding effort to begin learning." Outside the workshop, Jaeden is also studying a Bachelor of Commerce and Bachelor of Property and Real Estate at Deakin University
while completing his apprenticeship through Box Hill Institute. Importantly, university hasn't distracted him from automotive.
"Rather than choosing one path and abandoning the other, I decided to challenge the assumption that I had to choose at all. I did both."

Zahlee Jaye Wheeler Queensland
When Zahlee Jaye Wheeler started as a schoolbased apprentice at Allweld Manufacturing, she was just 16 years old and stepping into a traditionally male-dominated industry. Since then, Zahlee has developed into a respected member of the team, building her technical skills while taking on leadership responsibilities, coordinating workflow and supporting newer apprentices. Her determination to learn and willingness to step outside her comfort zone has helped her become one of Queensland's rising stars. Her Operations Manager, Steve Scheikowski, says Zahlee stands out not only for her work ethic, but for the way she supports those around her. "Zahlee is the kind of apprentice every business hopes to develop, motivated, capable, and genuinely committed to both her trade and the people around her." Outside the workshop, Zahlee is passionate about encouraging more women to consider careers in manufacturing and trades.

"I was inspired to pave the way for other females and be the representation that would have been beneficial for me." That commitment to her trade, her teammates and the next generation has already earned Zahlee a Women in Manufacturing Apprentice Award, with her Capricorn Rising Stars regional win adding another milestone to an impressive journey.

Deklan Garcia Western Australia
WA
In the remote town of Kununurra, Deklan Garcia has built his reputation through reliability, commitment and pride in his work. After making the decision to restart his apprenticeship journey and pursue auto electrical work, Deklan threw himself into every opportunity to learn. His nomination highlighted perfect attendance, exceptional work ethic and a determination to build a better future for himself and his community. Employer, Brent Wittwer, says it's Deklan's character that truly stands out. "Deklan represents not only a dedicated and capable apprentice, but a young man who has made a conscious choice to build a better future for himself through hard work, integrity and consistency."
"I take pride in my work, no short cuts, and I make sure it's done right the first time."
As a proud Aboriginal apprentice from the Kimberley, Deklan hopes his journey can help inspire other young people to consider a trade and pursue opportunities that can create long-term careers.
Already, he's encouraged other young people in his community to explore apprenticeships and see the automotive industry as a pathway to a rewarding future.

CAPRICORN IGNITION O CTOBER 2026
From classic Dodges to modern vehicles, Barry Carrington's passion for cars hasn't faded.
F
ew people can say they've spent more than 50 years doing something they enjoy.
For Barry Carrington, cars have been part of life for as long as he can remember. The owner of Lake Auto Services first found himself drawn to the automotive world as a schoolboy hanging around a local service station, pumping fuel and learning whatever he could. What started as curiosity soon became an apprenticeship, then a career, and eventually a business of his own. More than five decades later, that curiosity is still there. "I really enjoyed the mysteries of automotive technologies back in the day." And that's what's kept Barry interested through all the changes the industry has seen over the years. Cars may look different, drive differently and be packed with more technology than ever before, but the fascination remains the same.
The fascination started early Lake Auto Services has been serving customers for around 50 years, but Barry's chapter began in 2017 when he purchased the business from longtime owner Ross Lake. Having worked there for a decade beforehand, he already knew the workshop, the customers and the dayto-day realities of running it. "When he decided he was going to retire, instead of training a new boss, I figured I could buy it myself." The move felt like the natural next step. Barry had managed workshops before and had often stepped in to run the business whenever Ross was away. Today, he works alongside one other staff member, keeping things simple and focusing on the things that matter most. He's never been overly concerned with growing into a massive operation. For Barry, it's about doing quality work, treating customers fairly and making sure people leave knowing they've been looked after.

Customers who keep coming back Ask Barry why customers continue returning year after year and his answer is plain and simple. "They feel that we're trustworthy. We don't try to rip them off." It's an approach that's served the business well. "We give a good service at a reasonable price. People seem to like that."
The Dodge that keeps him thinking After all his years in the trade, Barry has witnessed some extraordinary changes in vehicle technology. Modern vehicles are filled with sophisticated electronics, driver assistance systems and safety features that would've been difficult to imagine when he first got started. And while he appreciates the advances, he still enjoys the experience of driving something a little older. One of his favourite vehicles is a 1928 Dodge Standard Six. Driving it requires a bit more concentration than most cars on the road today. "The gas pedal is where the brake pedal is in a normal car." Jumping from his Mitsubishi Triton into the Dodge means quickly reminding himself that the pedal layout is completely different. "You've really got to think about driving that." And that's exactly what he enjoys about it. The Dodge demands attention. You can't just jump in and drive on instinct. It keeps you engaged, focused and connected to the vehicle in a way that's becoming less common. But that doesn't mean Barry is stuck in the past. Lake Auto Services regularly works on hybrids and electric vehicles, and Barry makes a point of staying current with training and technology. "We try to. That's just part of the industry." Whether a vehicle is nearly 100 years old or fresh off the showroom floor, Barry enjoys understanding how it works and what makes it tick.
16
CAPRICORN IGNITION O CTOBER 2026
Barry doesn't spend much time worrying about marketing campaigns or flashy promotions. Afterall, he doesn't really need to – a good service here, an honest quotation there and when the car rolls out, the customer referrals roll in. "We do have a lot of loyal customers, and those customers are always referring other people." That's become one of the business's greatest strengths. People know what they're getting when they walk through the door, and they trust Barry to tell them what needs doing and what's unnecessary. After so many years in the industry, Barry says one of the biggest lessons has been learning how to work with people. "It's been a great learning curve. Not only with technology, but how to deal with people." And while the vehicles have changed dramatically over the past five decades, the importance of good customer service hasn't changed at all.
Steady through changing times Like many automotive businesses across New Zealand, Lake Auto Services has felt the effects of a tougher economic climate.
It's created challenges for many businesses across the country, but Barry says things are beginning to improve.
Barry says rising living costs have influenced the way many people maintain their vehicles.
"It's starting to pick up again."
"People aren't servicing their cars the way they used to. They can't afford to." He's also noticed how election years can create uncertainty, with many people choosing to hold off on spending while they wait to see what happens next.
Like the boy pumping petrol at a local service station all those years ago, Barry's fascination with cars is still going strong. The vehicles may have changed, but the curiosity that first drew him into the industry hasn't gone anywhere.
"Things tend to quieten down before the election. People want to hold on to their money because they don't know what's going to happen."
