Office Brands dealer joins compact dealer group in October.

 

North Queensland Office Brands dealer Tosco Business & Education has moved across to independent dealer group ASA Australia, effective 1 October.

 

Owned by Judy and Stephen Gardiner, Tosco has locations at Bungalow in Cairns and Bohle in Townsville.

 

For many years trading as Tosco Office National, the company recently rebranded as Tosco Business & Education.

 

As the largest office products reseller in the region, Tosco has been operating since 1958 and currently employs 30 full-time staff.

 

Tosco’s move to ASA coincides with the loss of Katoomba-based member Bennetts Office Supplies, which closed its doors at the end of last month following the retirement of Alan and Lyn Sturgiss.

 

Other members of ASA Australia include Adelaide Direct Stationers, Sharp Office (Broadmeadow, NSW), Blue Ink (Fyshwick, ACT), Impact Office Supplies (Brisbane, Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast, Queensland), Coffs Harbour Office Supplies (also Grafton, NSW) and Holiday Coast Office (Taree, NSW).
