Graphic Art Mart is a leading Australian supplier of graphic supplies and equipment. Established in 1973 as Kevin Bolton Sign Supplies, the company grew as a well-known identity in the sign industry before changing its name to Graphic Art Mart in 1978.
“Our Vision is to be your preferred provider of sign, digital, graphic and equipment solutions to the Visual Industries in Australia” – Mark Tailby, Managing Director.
Back in the 1970s sign writing was done by hand - Graphic Art Mart has followed industry changes and evolution, from hand techniques using brushes, paints, pens and pencils to using high-end computer graphics programs which are connected to printers, cutters, routers and engravers. Through in-house testing and research we are confident that we are providing the best materials for high performance and quality signs and graphics, in a rapidly progressing and ever-changing industry.
Graphic Art Mart endeavors to understand your needs and do more to ensure the highest quality personalised client service. "Making Signs is your business - Making it easier is ours"TM has been Graphic Art Mart's motto for many years. This motto is the heart of Graphic Art Mart with a genuine commitment to customer service which is backed with products from the most progressive companies in the signage industry worldwide.
Graphic Art Mart is supported by a range of industry leading suppliers including Avery Dennison, Arlon Graphics, Aslan, Roland DG, Chemica, TransfeRite, 3M, RTape and Mutoh.
“We communicate honestly with you and our suppliers, do what we say we will do and conduct our business professionally” – Glenn Tailby, Manager.
In 1999 due to strong and consistent growth, Graphic Art Mart expanded into Queensland in partnership with Franco Bortolin, opening a store in Brisbane and more recently in 2012, a store in Melbourne, Victoria, partnering with Daryl Newell.
As Graphic Art Mart approaches 40 years of dedication to the sign industry, the one thing that stands out is "change is good". We have certainly seen plenty of change and no doubt more is to come.
