Paul and Michael Raiter had always dreamed of owning their own business since they were kids. When Michael went searching for luggage before an adventure to Europe in 1988 and couldn’t get any service in Department stores a seed was planted. After living in London and catching a train to work from Victoria Station each day, Michael returned to Perth keen to open a luggage store with Paul. They decided the store would look and feel like an ’Olde World’ C train station to reflect the excitement of travel in the 19th century.
In 1990 when Paul and Michael were in their early twenties they moved from Perth to Melbourne to open Victoria Station. Paul says ’When we opened the store we sold brands like Samsonite and Antler and provided great product knowledge and service. We’d often deliver customer’s luggage on weekends and they’d ask us to stay for lunch! Of course there was no Sunday trading back then.’ It wasn’t long before people told their friends about the store and the business took off and more stores were opened. A few years’ later handbags and wallets were introduced and a more fashionable look to the store was created. Today Victoria Station has over 35 stores around Australia and continues to provide the personal service we are renowned for....and yes, the stores are still owned and run by Paul and Michael who are regularly found in stores helping customers prepare for their next trip.
