Space – When You Want It!
Or even when you don’t. With two locations and a combined capacity of over 45,000 square metres we are fully flexible to meet the demands of the marketplace. You’ll get reports with valuable information showing how much stock you have and how old the stock is, so that you can forecast and manage what stock you have on hand at anytime. Of course we’ll be there to help you through, offering advice on how best to utilise the space.
Security and Compliance
We take our duty of care very seriously. Because we are managing your stock and your reputation, we ensure we are fully compliant to all Victorian statutory and legal requirements as well as national practices and principles according to WorkSafe regulations.
Protecting Your Reputation
We put the safety of our staff at the top of our priorities. Our workplace relies on a team that is educated on the most up to date safety requirements and are dedicated to continuous training and improvement.
We look after them so they can look after your products.
- Workcover Insurance for all staff
- Public Liability Insurance to the value of $20M

Protecting your products.
All products are protected and kept in pristine condition in our clean, modern warehouses. We use a combination of CCTV and back to base alarm systems. In addition to two security patrols per evening, we undertake random checks on all staff leaving the premises. The value of cycle counting is that you know exactly how much stock you have on paper and in reality, at all times.
