In a continuation of our efforts to support local communities, we are pleased to have donated two of our Australian made hybrid shopping trolleys to the Mt Gravatt Community Centre in QLD!

Katrina of MGCC reached out to us after searching for a trolley to assist their volunteers and staff working in the Food Pantry where ‘Emergency Relief’ food and other essential items are provided for local community members and international students in need of assistance and support.

Needless to say, this is a great cause and one that we are proud to be able to support. You can read Katrina’s story below:

Upon checking out the Supercart website, I was surprised and excited to read that your trolleys are manufactured in Australia from recycled empty milk bottles and other plastics.  As I have a keen interest in environmental sustainability and recycling, I rang Theodoor to ask for the prices of these lovely trolleys. He asked me for what purpose they would be used.

I mentioned that they would be mainly used to assist volunteers and staff working in the Mt Gravatt Community Centre Food Pantry where 'Emergency Relief' food and other essential items are provided for local community members and international students in need of assistance and support.

Theodoor kindly offered our Community Centre a donation of two trolleys (one small and one large), provided we would cover the transport cost. Aden Martin of Logifix Freight Solutions was contacted by Theodoor on our behalf, to enquire about the cost of freight for our trolleys from Melbourne to Brisbane. Aden kindly offered to discount the freight for us.

Both trolleys have been put to good use daily and are lightweight and quiet. They are extremely easy to manoeuvre around corners which makes our workload so much easier.

Thank you Theodoor for the generous donation offered to the Mt Gravatt Community Centre on behalf of Supercart. We would also like to thank Aden of Logifix Freight Solutions for the discounted freight cost.                                                             It is very much appreciated."
