The Tasmanian Automotive Chamber of Commerce (TACC) has served the automotive industry in Tasmania since 1928.

There had always been a long standing and mutually supportive relationship between TACC and the Victorian Automotive Chamber of Commerce (VACC).

TACC successfully lobbied state government on behalf of members for many years, but times were changing and in 1999 TACC and VACC were amalgamated. This merger offered members a more diverse range of services, while still maintaining a Tasmanian perspective on local issues.

Today we are dedicated to the promotion, representation and preservation of member businesses to local, state and federal governments, as well as the media, consumers and the community.

THE GRILLE tops Aussie podcast list

13 January 2022

VACC's THE GRILLE has been recognised as one of the top Australian podcasts in 2021.

Released by Great Australian Pods, engagement numbers and website views were analysed in order to reveal the year's fan favourites.

Published monthly, each episode of THE GRILLE – an automotive industry podcast – features news and views about the state of Australia’s automotive industry, as well as an interview with a famous motoring personality such as Jeremy Clarkson, Daniel Ricciardo and Molly Taylor.

The crew includes Greg Rust – one of Australia’s best-known motorsport journalists and commentators with years of experience behind the microphone and in front of the camera – in the driver’s seat. He is joined by Shane Jacobson, an immediately identifiable and well-loved actor, presenter, and knowledgeable automotive enthusiast with fuel coursing through his veins. Bringing rigour and a business perspective, VACC CEO Geoff Gwilym is a respected automotive professional with decades of industry experience.

“It’s such a rare thrill to be working with the best in the business, and THE GRILLE team really is the best. Greg Rust is so knowledgeable and well-connected within the automotive world, and Geoff Gwilym is the go-to guy for industry comment. What he doesn’t know isn’t worth knowing. I’m really geared up for THE GRILLE. Talking all things automotive? Try to stop me,” said Shane.

In the midst of all the noise out there, THE GRILLE is proudly different. Boasting the best and most knowledgeable hosts, with quality content and high production values, the show has become a favourite among automotive professionals, motoring enthusiasts, and motorsport fans.
