++New look for Tradco with help from RSB Industrial Services
Tradco Traditional Hardware Co. has a new look in retail stores with the help of RSB Industrial Services.
The South Australian owned and based hardware business had been selling door furniture, architectural fittings, locks, latches, hinges and more in bulk for more than 30 years. Now, with redesigned retail packing, these items are sold individually in blister packs – great for the customer and great for business growth.
“The blister packs we have designed at RSB Industrial Services means that the individual packaging is eye catching and displays the product professionally for the retail market. It also allows Tradco to package locally and build on demand, in small or large runs as required,” says RSB Sales Consultant, Peter Nannini.
Tradco Director, Graham Duff says the results speak for themselves. “We imagined we’d have to do this overseas to be at all competitive, so we’re very pleased with the competitive rates offered by RSB Industrial Services, as well as the simplified process and final product.”
Dedicated to helping local businesses grow, with assistance from RSB Industrial Services Tradco now have a new focus – overseas product distribution to New Zealand.
“We’re very excited about the potential increase of our customer base, and the redesigned packaging has certainly helped us to get to this point,” says Graham.
Importantly, the Tradco contract employs up to six South Australians who are blind or vision impaired. “We are pleased we’ve been able to completed this work locally and give back to the State,” says Graham.
