Collate HistoryCollate Business Systems has been at the forefront of the Document Solutions Industry since 1991.
With over 30 years extensive experience, based in Hampshire, Collate has successfully carved its way to become one of the country’s leading suppliers of not only integrated office document technology and multifunction devices, but market leading solutions to create efficiency and cost savings in document and information distribution. Collate services customers in Bournemouth, Poole, Dorset, Southampton, Portsmouth and all along the south coast.
Since our humble beginnings, there has been a major shift in customer’s requirements – to be service led, is now the dominant driver of our company; our business principles and ideals remain unchanged.
Collate has always placed emphasis on being customer centric and putting customer needs first – an ethos which has always been the moral fibre that runs deep within our core principles. As testament to this, we work in partnership with our customers and understand their business challenges, which enable us to provide a holistic approach for printing and management service needs, and to supply the right solution for their office requirements.
In today’s world of internet start-ups and in an ever changing and turbulent market, Collate has thrived. We are very proud of our heritage and as Collate continues to grow organically, both new and old customers still enjoy the highest level of service and commitment.
Our business longevity pays tribute to the continuation of service; some of our very first customers are still with us today. This is testament to the vision, process, and desire of all staff who have embraced the Collate ethos and business ethic.
With offices in Ringwood, Hampshire, we serve the needs of clients throughout the UK, providing print savings and operational efficiencies to all those with whom we work with.
I and the RNLI would recommend Collate Business Systems as a supplier as they are always fast and efficient. The staff are friendly and ready to help, offering every solution possible.
