Mitre 10 is the trading name of an Australian retail and trade hardware store chain. Operations are based on a co-operative system where the store owners are members of the national group and each has voting rights. The chain name references the mitre joint, but was inspired by the Mitre Tavern in Melbourne.[3] There are over 400 "Mitre 10" and its associated "True Value Hardware" franchises throughout Australia.
