We also played an important role in the Victorian Government’s COVID-19 pandemic response, securing essential personal protective equipment and life-saving equipment to support our health system’s readiness for the crisis.
We are now entering an exciting new phase in our organisational growth as we expand to deliver a full, end-to-end supply chain across the state, which includes the opening of a 22,500 square metre distribution centre that will serve as Victoria’s new medical consumables supply chain hub.
