About the Cobb & Co Brand
To track the beginnings of Cobb & Co, you need to look back to the pioneering spirit of the original Cobb & Co in the late 1800’s. The original Cobb & Co was set up in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, in December 1853 by four Americans: Freeman Cobb, John Peck, John Lamber & James Swanton. They commenced stage coaching between Sandridge (Port Melbourne) & Melbourne – a distance of 3 miles. The list of routes was expanded shortly thereafter to link the newer goldfields and settlements with the Victorian capital. Soon, mail contracts were awarded to the business & Cobb & Co operated a gold escort, passenger and mail service based on reliable and efficient schedules.
The advent of the motor vehicle in the early 20th Century, as well as political & economic effects from World War 1, heralded the end of an era. The decline of the coaching industry saw the inevitable closure of Cobb & Co, which had its final coach run in 1924.
Today the brand still represents the values of the original Cobb & Co coaches. Reliable, Trusted, Australian, Traditional, Accurate.
