Some of you would know Craig McCallum from Autobarn Narre Warren. Craig, being a true car audio enthusiast managed to put the Narre Warren Autobarn store on the map for car audio, both locally but also to customers from far and wide.

We heard recently that Craig has sold his share of the business to his business partner of 7 years, and will be moving on from July 1st. Craig started 10 years ago at the store and after working as an installer for the first two years, then moved on to management. Craig has been a major supporter of not only the industry itself, but specifically MEA/MEASQ/BASS Battle and someone I consider a close friend and I personally wish him all the best in his yet to be determined future endeavours.

It will certainly be a tough act for Narre Warren AB to follow after Craigs departure and of course we hope they maintain the high standard for car audio installation, range and of course, events.

While he might be a number cruncher (Diploma of Accounting) we know he's a passionate car audio and car racing enthusiast, and truly hope to see his stay within the industry after a short break.

Good luck Craig, and thanks on behalf of MEA for all the support, advice and friendship.

Thanks guys,
I look forward to staying involved in the car audio industry but we will have to wait and see
what the future brings, I will still be attending events on a personal level, and will still be happy to help
out in any way I can.

Looking forward to what the future brings
Craig
