Cartridge World has welcomed a new franchisee, Dean Allan, to the Cartridge World Gawler store, which has relocated to 116 Murray Street, Gawler.
Customers can enjoy 10% off storewide as part of the opening celebrations and are encouraged to drop in and say ‘Hi’ to Dean and his team whilst taking advantage of this special offer.
The store is the tenth Cartridge World franchise to be opened in South Australia taking the total number of stores and agencies across Australia and New Zealand to over 160. Founded in Adelaide, in 1988, the specialty retailer of ink and toner printer cartridges prides itself in supplying low-cost, quality printer cartridges in an environmentally friendly manner.
The Gawler store sells Cartridge World’s own brand of ink and toner cartridges, plus OEM (original) brands, printers, and stationery, combining a whole host of printing services and solutions – offering the best selection in town, making it the ideal choice for all those home and office needs.
Dean has lived in the Gawler region for more than 20 years. In addition to operating the store, he also runs a bookkeeping and administration services company where his customers often require items such as replacement ink and toner cartridges, printers, and stationery. As Dean says, “Becoming a Cartridge World store owner is a natural fit for me. I’ve previously worked as a subcontractor to Cartridge World, so I am familiar with the company ethos and its commitment to providing quality customer service.”
Delivering excellent customer service and demonstrating Cartridge World’s commitment to environmental sustainability are key motivators for Dean. His new store will provide residents in the Gawler and surrounding regions with all their printing and stationery requirements – a local business supporting its local community with quality products, expertise, and exemplary service.
Through Cartridge World’s partnership with Planet Ark and their Cartridges 4 Planet Ark program, customers can bring cartridges to the store to be recycled. The store also stocks recycled stationery products.
Ingo Schroeder, Master Franchisee for South Australia commented, “We are extremely excited to welcome Dean and his team to the Cartridge World family as it comes with the knowledge that Dean and his wife have been a part of the Gawler community for so many years.
We recognise local community involvement as an important attribute when choosing the best franchisee. Dean and his team bring an enormous level of skill, experience, and community focus that we know will help the local community and provide exemplary service for many years to come.”
Peter Mitropoulos, Cartridge World CEO said “Congratulations to Dean on joining us as a franchisee. We are delighted to see the expansion of our bricks and mortar stores within the Network providing trusted printing solutions and products, plus face-to-face expertise, and service to our customers. We wish them all the best for the future.”
