Our Distribution team taking gearing up to the next level. Proudly supporting our defence forces.
Field and tactical gear is just one of the ways we support our defence forces, but when the ACT COVID-19 lockdown started and Officer Cadets from RMC Duntroon were stuck without important field gear for upcoming exercises our team stepped up to distribute the urgently needed items. Our defence forces don’t stop and neither do we.
The Lowdown
Being stuck in a lurch without a way to get important supplies for field operations just won’t do. So when we got the call to help our RMC Duntroon Officer Cadets with a bulk order for the urgently required gear, we got to work.

A skeletal force of our dispatch team worked on the hundreds of orders from our defence forces
With confirmation that our packing could be completed safely, our essential work could begin, with hundreds of orders already packed and ready to go out into the field with our defence forces. We are proud to support our defence forces as they continue important activities in these challenging times.
David, our warehouse manager and Caris, head of our retail, customer service and distribution made sure that the orders were processed and dispatched following safety protocols
