Getting Vehicles Working
Practical budget concious storage for tradies
Client:
Workvan
Year:
2025
Project Overview
Workvan is a range of modular storage cabinetry designed for installation in the back of utes and vans, providing New Zealand tradespeople with a practical and affordable storage solution. We saw a gap in the market for cost-effective yet high-quality vehicle storage, so we set out to design a system that balances simplicity, security, and efficiency. The kits are adaptable to a wide variety of common NZ work vehicles, helping tradies stay organized while keeping their tools and equipment secure.
My Role
I was tasked with establishing and validating the business while developing cost-effective storage solutions that compete in the market. Our designs are CNC-manufactured in-house and assembled as modular kits, allowing for easy installation by the customer. One of the biggest challenges was ensuring compatibility with a wide range of vehicles while keeping the system simple and functional.
Workvan has been rapidly expanding, with a steady demand from local tradies. We continue to refine our products and scale the business to meet the growing demand for versatile, affordable storage solutions in New Zealand’s trade industry.
