A very important part of how our company operates is the support given to us by the stores that stock our products - it always has been and always will be.

When I first started the company way back in 2016, the first products were developed in secrecy to ensure that it was indeed a viable concept and when it was time to launch them, I approached Suzy & Andrew at Andrew's Hobbies at their old Deer Park store and presented them with the products to get their thoughts. They loved the concept and supported us from day dot. Without their support, there would be no way that we could have kicked the range into gear as fast as we did if not at all.

That was a very important lesson in business to ensure that each and every stockist was supported back as much as possible.

Support those who support you.

At last check, over 97% of our product volume is sold through our trusted network of over 60 stores here in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, the US and the UK.

Each one of these stores has taken the time and money to invest into our product range, so we always insist that you please support them with your purchases. It helps them grow and thrive and then flows down to us to allow us to invest back into our company to produce new product lines to ensure that you all have the products within reach locally that will make your model building easier.

We recently invested money into redeveloping our website a few months back and also included a new interactive map to make it much easier to find your closest store. Just allow your location in your browser and you should see a bunch of markers near your location. Click on the marker and up comes the stores information including address, phone and website.

It has never been a more important time than now to support local with the events of Covid 19 effecting global supply chains the world over.

So please, next time you are at your local hobby store, grab a couple of bottles of SMS Paints for that new model kit you just picked up. You wont be disappointed.

Keep on modelling!
