About Us

Colin and Nikki took over running the previous Company Hopkins Saddlery in January 2023. Col and Nikki are a husband and wife team who are passionate about taking the success of the past and making it even bigger and better in the future with new and exciting products and fresh ideas. Col has been in the equine industry for over thirty years, and Nikki for ten years; both previously worked for the former company. With the loyal and knowledgeable staff, including expert machinists who have worked for the previous company for over thirty years, and a superstar saleswoman running the retail shop, Nikki & Col are confident in the ability to push NC Equine into an exciting future and produce great things while maintaining and growing the current wonderful customer base.

Originally established in the 1980s, the former company quickly became a market leader in harness racing in Australia. Since then, the expertise has expanded into all areas of the equestrian market. Offering an extensive range of products, both imported and lovingly hand-crafted in our Adelaide-based factory.

We are a REAL shop and run a workshop with professional machinists who have a passion for horses. We are confident that we can continue to produce quality products and maintain our loyal customer base while also expanding into new markets and growing our business.

We are ‘Team’ NC Equine.
