AN INVITATION

We hope that you will take the time to read the attached information about the Rapid Group Co-operative, as we believe that it represents a good opportunity to enhance your business.

As you are probably aware, the Rapid Group is the largest and oldest buying group in the cleaning supplies industry in Australia. 

In recent years the group developed the RapidClean brand to enhance its members go-to-market strategy that is based on technical competency, local service, and national coverage. 

The group’s objective is to provide the industry with a financially sound, nationally based, quality supplier, focusing on “cleaning” products.

To date in Australia no organization has staked a claim to the cleaning supply industry.

The group represents combined national turnover of $80m. The total current combined member purchases through its key supplier program are $21m.

We believe we are well placed to secure the dominant group and membership position in the country.

To achieve our goal we have been strengthening our existing key supplier programs and we are keen to strategically expand our membership base.

A critical element of our strategic plan is to provide a consistent quality service within two hours reach from all major population centres in Australia.  We will achieve this buy selectively expanding our membership base.

As we continue to strengthen our level of market coverage with consistent programs that assist our members and their customers, it will directly enhance the group’s negotiation position and strategic importance with our key suppliers.

Our prime objective is to translate our inherent strength in market coverage, membership, and supplier programs to add real value and increased profitability to our member’s businesses.

We achieve this by gaining benefits for our members that they would not be able to achieve on their own.

These benefits are directly measurable in the pricing and rebate programs that we have with our key suppliers. 

However, there are many other benefits that come from being a member of the Rapid Group some of which are outlined in our membership kit.

Please find attached our new member package.

Please feel free to contact me if you require more information or if you have any questions

Thank you again for taking the time to read through this information about RapidClean.

Yours sincerely,

Martin Smith

National Business Manager
