Wide format supplier Graphic Art Mart has opened its seventh distribution centre in the South Sydney suburb of Peakhurst, set to complement its existing facility in North Rocks.

The new centre is Graphic Art Mart’s fifth new branch opening in three years. Mousa Elsarky, general manager comments, “This new site, in addition to our North Rocks facility, now offers fast and convenient access to our products throughout the metropolitan area. It is our desire to offer Sydney customers the best of products and the high service levels they deserve.”

Many customers may have a rush job where they need to pick up a certain kind of media immediately, travelling from south Sydney to North Rocks can be a mission, I know because I do it every day, the new facility in Peakhurst means those customers will be able to access the media they need easily and quickly.”

In 2013 Graphic Art Mart operated only three distribution centres, but it now has warehouses in every Australian capital city, including two in Sydney.

Elarsky says, “Our aim is to provide the optimum service to our customers. We have always been a national supplier, but today we have a nationwide footprint, which is good news for the market as it works in an increasingly on demand world.”

Graphic Art Mart supplies a range of hardware and media from brands such as Avery Dennison, Roland DG, Arlon, Aslan, Chemica, Mimaki, Sihl and 3M among others.

The company was founded and owned by the Tailby family until a year ago, when it was bought by Australian engineering outfit Dotmar.
