New premises proves a boon for business

Supported employees at CAL Industries are enjoying improved business opportunities with a move new premises in the Benalla Rural City business park at the gateway to Benalla.

The relocation to a larger building allows CAL Industries to take on more work.

Chief Executive Officer Anthony Putt said the CAL Industries—the Central Access Limited business unit—had its roots in Benalla mowing lawns and washing cars.

'Its growth has given valuable work skills to people with a disability, some of whom have secured open employment within local industry.'

Mr Putt said CAL Industries was a quality-accredited business unit, employing 23 people and capable of accepting a variety of different work.

'Quality products, customer service and cost effectiveness are the cornerstones of this business unit.'

Mr Putt said the new premises would allow CAL Industries to market a range of new services to local industry and demonstrate the advantages to be gained through partnering with Central Access Limited.

'Our pricing is very competitive and we employ quality-accredited manufacturing principles.

'We are also able to offer excellent delivery times and customer service.'

Central Access Limited delivers a comprehensive range of services to people with a disability through its sites in Mansfield, Benalla, Wangaratta and Cobram.

Profit from CAL Industries is re-invested into Central Access Limited to advance opportunities for people with a disability.
