In 1951, Holden bought 153 acres (62 ha) of land in Dandenong, Melbourne and opened the Holden Dandenong Plant in 1956. [1]

The plant was closed in 1988. [2] Starting in 1989, the Toyota Corolla and Holden Nova (a rebadged Corolla) were built at the Dandenong plant until 1994, when production moved to Toyota Australia's Altona Plant. [3]
