COS-Eco-Range-2023-ECatalogue

2 SUSTAINABILITY Together with our large customer and supplier network, we’re developing smarter, more sustainable solutions to reduce our environmental impact. We are achieving net zero operations in 2023, having installed nearly 3,000 solar panels across our warehouses. This gives us the industry’s largest solar farm. Our ongoing environmental objectives include reducing single-use plastics in our day- to-day operations — in line with our membership of the Australian Packaging Covenant Organisation — and rolling out a fleet of electric delivery vehicles. COMMUNITY MINDED We are passionate about giving back, and are committed to making a difference to the environment and in our local communities. We offer an extensive range of eco-conscious, ethically sourced and First Nations products which help support local communities and reduce carbon emissions. We strive to make a difference to the lives of others, and through the Lyone Foundation we have an avenue to share our success with local charities. FIRST NATIONS ENGAGEMENT We are excited to be a part of a positive movement creating opportunities for First Nations peoples, their communities, businesses, and suppliers. Our First Nations brands are hand-picked for their strong commitment to giving back within local communities, and our range has grown to include kitchen supplies, office stationery, and copy paper. FAMILY OWNED & OPERATED COS was founded in 1977 by Dominique Lyone, whose family fled from Egypt to Australia after the 1967 Six- Day War. Following in his father’s footsteps, he started a local office stationery business with two staff in Western Sydney. Over 45 years later, COS has over 600 staff delivering thousands of products to businesses across Australia with warehouses in every state and territory. COS remains a family run and privately owned business with Dominique’s daughters Amie & Belinda Lyone now leading the business together as Co-CEOs. Australia’s Largest Family Owned & Operated Office Products Supplier. Why COS?
