SafetyQuip and Workplace Safety

Workplace safety is a growth industry. Each year Australian businesses spend over $2billion in the prevention of accidents and injuries in the workplace.

SafetyQuip franchisees have continued to enjoy solid growth during the global financial crises and collectively increased group national sales by over 22% in the 2008/2009 fiscal year. As a result SafetyQuip was recently awarded a spot on the BRW 2010 list of fast growing franchises.
