A small family run business that started in February 2009 - 14 years ago from our home garage. Over the years we have grown through the support of our customers based on genuine old fashioned customer service and the quality and uniqueness of our products. What are we passionate about? We are the wholesaler with heart – these are not just words – it’s our ethos from caring about our business, our
team, our products, our customers, the environment, our suppliers and our community. We pride ourselves on old school customer service. We want to make the world a better place by supporting small family businesses both here and overseas. We don’t want to be part of a throwaway society. We are environmentally conscious with the sustainable sourcing of our products as we do not support massed produced products. Why buying from DARLIN is a benefit to you! The products you purchase from us are sourced from small family run businesses all over the world. You are supporting our small Australian family run business and you are also supporting an entire community here and abroad;
1. You are contributing to our planet by NOT buying cheap mass produced products that end up as landfill;
2. Our products are limited releases and sell out quickly. This means we provide you with fresh and new pieces on a regular basis that will keep your customers coming back for more;
3. You get exclusivity on the products you buy - they won't be stocked next door!;
4. No minimum order - order as much or as little as you need based on your budget or cashflow;
5. Freight is free to QLD, NSW & VIC customers and capped at 5% for SA, WA, NT & TAS customers. For oversize items there is a $13 surcharge and for Island customers there is a $65 remote fee (excludes bulky furniture items);
6. We have a dedicated team to help you through your purchasing journey as we want your experience to be paramount with us not just on the first purchase, but for many years to come;
