Our Story

The Bridge Shop was founded in 1974 by Sydney bridge identity George Stephens. He opened up a little store in Northbridge, Sydney and began by importing books from the UK and the United States to meet the demands of the local bridge community.

The business was immediately successful and quickly grew to supply other products such as playing cards and other supplies for club and home bridge.

Stephens retired from the business in 1988, selling The Bridge Shop to Richard Brightling, a New Zealand expatriate who had just opened Trumps, which was soon to become the biggest club in Australia. Brightling ran The Bridge Shop (as well as Australian Bridge Magazine) from an upstairs office but it quickly outgrew these small premises. The shop was moved to Willoughby in 1992. In 1998 Brightling sold his bridge club to local teacher Derrick Browne and The Bridge Shop to Nick Fahrer, its current owner.
