Startek Imports has been a supplier of
quality writing instruments and executive gifts to the Australian
marketplace for the past 20 years. In 1998 the company was acquired by
the present owners, Peter and Rachel Hyman. At first the company was
solely managed by Rachel but it was not long before Peter joined her
on a full time basis. Together they have built a solid business which
now represents some of the world’s leading brands in prestige writing
instruments and desk accessories.
The very first pen sold by Startek
Imports (previously known as Swanhurst) was the Byron. A wooden pen
made in Australia. The success of the Byron led the then owners to
seek other brands and they became the first country outside of the USA
to act as a distributor for the Fisher Space Pen Company. Other
agencies came and went and when Peter and Rachel took over the company
the agencies were Fisher Space Pen, Tombow of Japan, Sensa of the USA
and El Casco of Spain.
Peter and Rachel built the business with
a few goals in mind. The first was to provide a high quality of
service to their customers . The second was to only acquire agencies
that were of the highest They also looked for writing instruments that
were unique in design and technological edge.
Over time more agencies were added till
today Startek Imports represents world famous brands in writing
instruments and executive gifts.
