The Canberra Workwear name “was purchased by the previous owner around 2014,” said Lyn McKenzie.
“Previously, we have operated as Action Sportswear since our inception in 1995. We started out as a designer and manufacturer and have now grown into the well-known and trusted Canberra Workwear brand.”
We run a very agile operation, “we are a small local company and currently work in two branches with a total of seven employees.
“We are a diverse group of people with backgrounds in retail, graphic design, fashion design, law and hospitality.”
To summarize the offering: “Our products are extensive and include safety workwear, including boots, high visibility clothing for all climates, non-high visibility clothing and other items, goggles, special winter and summer products, hydration products and hand protection, head protection and fall protection.
“We also supply non-safety products such as company workwear, all items including office wear, gowns for medical facilities and shoes for them. Hospitality clothing such as aprons, chef uniforms and shoes therefor.
“We also supply sports uniforms for work-related team building days, team wear for various activities and the occasional outdoor adventure wear.”
“The future…is interesting as we move forward with significant innovations”

Looking ahead to the next steps for the industry, “The future of our business is interesting as we drive significant innovation in footwear and apparel,” said Lyn.
“Environmental concerns are now at the forefront of many of our manufacturers. With the increasing use of recycled plastics in clothing and technological advances in all footwear applications, the future is indeed exciting.”
Regarding why supporting local businesses is good, “we advise that when choosing your uniforms, please consider your local suppliers.
“We hire in your community. We support your community.”
Furthermore, “we are specialists in our field and can help you choose the best product for your needs.” Remember the old adage: price is forgotten long after quality is remembered.
“We strive to give our customers our best deal to ensure their uniforms last and fit. We have the experience and knowledge of our industry at no cost to you.”
