A prominent hardware and timber supplier has expanded its distribution network, to  ensure builders and tradies have access to all the materials they need.

Sunshine Mitre 10 opened a purpose-built distribution centre at Kunda Park in mid-January and General Manager Neil Hutchins said the facility was a response to industry-wide supply chain challenges that have been experienced since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020.

“It is no secret that there has been a significant shortage of building materials and delays in the supply of materials to Australia, so we wanted to do all we could to give our building and trade customers some security around this,” he said.

“By increasing our storage and logistics facilities, together with our growing network of stores across Queensland, it means we can get the products to our builders when they need them.”

The distribution centre at Hoopers Road is a purpose-built logistics centre and includes a massive 4500m2 under roof.

“This distribution centre, along with our network of 18 locations across Queensland, means our group can meet the demand of the market and support our customers.”

Mr Hutchins said the branch network would also continue to grow this year with the completion of two additional greenfield developments, one at North Lakes, and another at the Stockland Aura Business Park on the Sunshine Coast.
