Total Tools Australia

Overview

Sarris International was approached to assist Total Tools Australia to grow and expand the brand Nation Wide.

In 2014 a partnership was formalised between the 2 companies to work together to achieve the goal of rolling out more stores Nationally and Internationally over the next 5 years. Managing all aspects from site identification and site selection, negotiating with local council regarding zoning and usage compliance, achieving Development Approvals, Exterior Signage approvals, preparing all design and documentation for construction, assistance with project management of landlords works and tenancy fit out works to practical completion and ensuring timely handover to franchisee ready for operation. Sarris International assisted Total Tools to grow into over 70 stores Nationally between 2014 and 2018. Total Tools have been servicing Australia for more than 30 years and are Australia’s largest independent professional tools retailer.

I have utilised the services of Sarris International Design spanning over a period of 15 years and across 4 different brands. Their wonderful designs, new concept adaptations and dedication to their client outcomes are a testament to their success and expansion. Communication and the ability to connect with clients and stakeholders is the key to "winning" for any outsourced provider, Sarris has this in "spades" and I have absolute and complete comfort in their ability to deliver any project on time, as directed and on budget. But it is their willingness to deliver beyond the "brief" that I love. Their ability to immerse themselves into not only understanding the brand and how the brand should be represented but finding solutions to challenges that arise and presenting formats that find new ways of brand representation in a crowded market place. This is why I continue to call on their expertise time and time again and will continue to do so into the future.
