COLEMAN EXPANDS INTO VICTORIA

Event and exhibition services business, Coleman Group, is expanding its operation, including sign and display print manufacturing and logistics, into Victoria, taking a new facility in Port Melbourne.

Based in Sydney for the past 75 years, the company’s major expansion into Victoria will be headed by managing director Rod Peter.

The opening is scheduled for January, with print, warehousing and logistics all set to be based in the new facility. Colemans is currently hiring staff.

Located just minutes from the Melbourne Exhibition and Convention Centre and the heart of the CBD, Coleman says this expansion underscores its commitment to “delivering exceptional service” to its growing customer base.

The new facility, which has an expansive warehouse and advanced logistics infrastructure, will enable Coleman Group to further enhance its capacity to support large-scale events, exhibitions, and corporate functions across Melbourne and beyond.

With easy access to major transport routes, this strategic location will help streamline operations and ensure quicker, more efficient delivery of products and services to clients.

“We are beyond excited to open our new Melbourne facility,” said Rod Peter, managing director at Coleman Group. “This move represents a significant milestone for us as we continue to expand our presence in the event and exhibition sector. Our new location is perfectly positioned to support the city’s thriving events industry, offering a central, accessible hub for our clients and partners.”

The Port Melbourne facility is equipped with the latest in event technology, high-end AV equipment, and a vast inventory of hireable assets, making it an ideal base for supporting everything from conferences and trade shows to product launches and major corporate events.

As part of the opening, Coleman Group will be hosting a special event at the new facility in the new year, inviting industry professionals, partners, and clients to celebrate the next chapter in the company’s journey.

“We’re excited about what’s to come and look forward to continuing to grow and innovate with our clients. This new space is more than just a facility – it’s a launchpad for even greater opportunities, both for us and for the Melbourne events community,” added Peter.
