About us….
What happens when some good friends catch up for a drink and one says – “if you ever want to sell your business”, and the other says “well actually” – that is how Stewart and Heather Manders ended up buying Noosa Trophy & Engraving Centre, now located in Venture Drive, Noosaville.
So, Stewart and Heather both with a background in sales, a strong drive and lots of initiative made the successful transition to business owners 13 years ago. A few years ago, they relocated to a bigger space which houses their impressive showroom and manufacturing plant.
Their showroom has an amazing display of trophies, awards, giftware, and promotional goods and on the engraving side of things, they do laser engraving, commercial and trade, name badges, jewellery, digital printing, sticker and the list goes on and on
And they have recently started Noosa Embroidery and Apparel which uses the latest technology and quality products to produce custom embroidery and digital printing on a range of apparel, garments and promotional items.
As much of their work is for sporting organisations, clubs, associations, schools and team events they work closely with their clients who are often volunteering their own time, to deliver a professional and friendly service.
Nothing is too much trouble for Heather and Stewart, they have both been involved in community organisations, Stewart as past president of the local soccer club , and with the Cooroy Pomona Lions club and Heather, Chairperson of the King of the Mountain event in Pomona for several years, which is a project of the Cooroy Pomona Lions Club, so they appreciate the challenges some of their clients have. And will work with them to get a great result for everybody.
Impressively, Heather has run the King of the Mountain twice (although the decision to do so, may have been influenced by a champagne with a girlfriend or two) and come in at an impressive time of 43 minutes! Her passion and excitement for the event shines through!
When they are not running the business, they are enjoying camping, time with family and walking their 3 adorable dogs.
Their showroom is manned by three gorgeous little dogs, in Archie, Indie and Luca, who add to the friendly ambiance that Heather and Stewart have created.
So for all your Trophies, Engraving, Embroidery, Promotional and special occasion needs give the Heather or Stewart at Noosa Trophy and Engraving a call: 07 5449 8887.
