RFShop Journey
our story
RFShop Story
2000
Our story began in the year 2000 in a small family workshop in Queensland with a passion for crafting technology-driven solutions. Over the years, under the leadership of David de Haaij, the company laid out its future expansion plans to relocate to South Australia by 2016.
2016
RFShop was officially relocated to Lonsdale, located south of Adelaide, SA. After establishing a larger warehouse and office to enhance manufacturing efficiency, RFShop experienced sustained growth from the distribution of high-quality RF and Wi-Fi products, including 4G and 5G antennas.
2018
RFShop identified a market opportunity for growth and specialised in RF custom coaxial cables. Likewise, it won a council grant to upgrade the inventory system, which led us to venture and forge our first significant partnership with a prominent Adelaide business in the automotive industry.
2019
Seeking business growth, Black Art Technologies (BAT), a sub-brand of RFShop specialising in designing and manufacturing high-performance EW and communication antennas, was established, leading to targeting Defence businesses.
2020
With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, RFShop expanded its product range including Wi-Fi solutions targeting new market niches such as caravans, boats, sheds, and home internet solutions, thus enhancing our e-commerce online store. Likewise, our YouTube channel was created to strengthen RFShop’s online brand presence.
2022
RFShop’s unwavering commitment to excellence and growth has led to the expansion and establishment of partnerships with businesses across diverse sectors, including Automotive, IT, Mining, Defence, and Telecommunications.
2023
Annika Altmae joined as a shareholder and COO, bringing new energy and vision. Alongside David and the rest of the team, RFShop and BAT have secured another council grant to begin implementing the ISO 9001:2015 accreditation. Strengthened our commitment to excellence, quality, and business growth.
2024
Under the leadership of Annika Altmae and David De Haaij as Co-Company Directors, RFShop continues to pursue growth and excellence. We have expanded again into larger premises, reinforcing our commitment to meeting increasing demand. Our CTO, David De Haaij, was honoured with a nomination for Engineer of the Year at the Australian Defence Industry Awards 2024, a testament to his expertise and innovation. Additionally, our team members have achieved IPC620 certification, and we have earned ISO 9001:2015 accreditation, further solidifying our position as local leaders in RF communication systems and advanced antenna solutions.
