History

Allstat was founded by Keith Brebner and John Threadgold in 1988 as a small wholesale stationery business. As the business expanded, it relocated to larger premises to facilitate managing broader lines of supply. Initially based in Scoresby, the business moved to Bayswater and then to Vermont in Melbourne’s East. Allstat is now one of Victoria’s largest wholesale stationery product suppliers.

In 2004, Allstat was acquired by David Dick and the business moved into its next phase of expansion. With customer service being a top priority, the challenge was to find ways to increase levels of service and professionalism. The solution has been to develop a personalised account management system which helps monitor customers’ needs more effectively and measure Allstat’s level of competitiveness in service, price, quality and range of products available. The new online ordering interface is the next step towards incorporating a customer-focused business strategy which aims to streamline the management and efficiency of Allstat’s supply line logistics.

In January 2006, Allstat relocated to larger premises in Knoxfield to help manage the greater demand for our range of over 20,000 products. The new location and ordering systems represent our next phase of development as we continue to strive to be the best in our business.
