The Surf Coast\u2019s largest building and landscape supplier is boosting its delivery capabilities, to keep pace with booming demand in the region.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With more than 250 different specialty products on offer, from gravel, to sand, to stone and mulch \u2013 SouthPoint Garden Supplies provides materials for large commercial construction projects as well as small backyard jobs and everything in between.<\/p>\n

Managing director Ashley Cook puts the growth of the business down to recent growth on the Surf Coast.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe business is going from strength to strength\u201d Mr Cook said.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur growth is really reflective of the growth in the region. They\u2019ve run parallel.\u201d<\/p>\n

SouthPoint moved to the West Coast Business Park in 2014 to its large new custom-built complex behind Bunnings, and has been adding trucks to the fleet ever since.<\/p>\n

Mr Cook said SouthPoint delivered anything from half a metre of mulch to hundreds of tonnes of product for large commercial projects.<\/p>\n

SouthPoint is proud to be part of the new business estate \u2013 a thriving hub of trade and retail businesses including an equipment hire, storage units and a fitness centre.<\/p>\n

In addition to the extensive range of materials, it is Mr Cook\u2019s in-depth industry experience and exceptional customer service that sets SouthPoint apart from the rest.<\/p>\n

Landscape and construction professionals have come to trust Mr Cook\u2019s emphasis on delivering quality products on time, with absolute reliability.<\/p>\n

Customers can come with their own trailer to pick up what they need, or arrange to have it delivered to their home.<\/p>\n

With supply and delivery reach going far beyond the Surf Coast region, the professionalism and excellence of SouthPoint is widely acknowledged, with a long list of clients right across Victoria.<\/p>\n

SouthPoint proudly supports many sporting clubs, schools, kindergartens and not-for-profit organisations along the Surf Coast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
