Growth fun: stock of physical resources

It’s most enjoyable being part of a growing company that’s helping to make a real difference for students and our future generation.

For our physical resources, we purposely don’t keep large stock as that would make things prohibitively expensive. The trade-off is that we can’t always do instant shipments. Typically, we do order in new items when we’re running low. It’s not an entirely straightforward process, since we have to assemble kits such as the Ginger Beer Classroom Kit and the Soldering Kit ourselves, by necessity from different sources.

When a product sees a particular spike in interest, we sometimes briefly run out. Actually that’s quite normal and it happens even with companies that keep lots of stock. When out-of-stock, we can generally fulfil the order within 1-2 weeks. A brief delay, but with the advantage that you get what you want, at a reasonable price, from a trusted Australian supplier with friendly service. We believe that these aspects adequately compensate for the lack of “instant gratification”…

So where are we at right now with our physical resources stock? A brief overview:

• Blackline World Map: updated edition just in, plenty of stock
• Mirobot drawing turtle robot kit: plenty of stock (for now)
• Soldering Kit: a few
• Robot Turtles Board Game: awaiting new shipment – also getting some of the new extension cards packs
• Speed cube (3x3x3): a few
• Ginger Beer Classroom Kit: just out again – generally part of our ginger beer (non-alcoholic) cafe program
