Wish TFO was in Melbourne?

• Tile Factory Outlet welcomes all customers, we
  get customers from all over Australia. Recently
  we have been getting many from Melbourne. Yet
  still, many think that Its all too hard and buy
  from their overpriced  Melbourne based store.
• The information below is designed to assist you
  in deciding to select tiles from TFO Sydney and
  then get them down to you with the minimum fuss.
• For our Melbourne customers we have a special
  option, we will give you the contact of one of
  our directors, Len Franco. Len has been in the
  tile industry for over 40 years. He has an
  Italian heritage and specializes in Italian
  tiles, Italian Carrara, Spanish Crema Marfil and
  Turkish travertine. His number is 0413 308 234.
  He will walk you through your order from start to
  finish. The best thing to do is call him, he will
  help you decide on what your best options are and
  how much you will save.

• Another customer bought for a small job on the
  western side of Melbourne. He bought 100m2 of
  Italian porcelain. It was not worth his while to
  fly up for just 2 pallets of porcelain tiles. He
  requested a small 200x200mm tile sample. The
  Italian tile was worth about 80m2 locally.
  However, he bought it at TFO for 35m2. The
  saving was circa 4,500 before transport. He used
  Pickerings transport to the Sunshine depot, then
  he picked it up from there, they charged him
  350, it would have been a hundred or so more
  delivered to site but he was trying to save and
  picked it up in his ute (2 trips)(Delivery info).
  So that was a total saving of over 4,000.
  Freight for him worked out at 3.50m2, (nothing
  compared to the saving)
• May I suggest you order 12 for cutting instead
  of 10 for porcelain tiles and 15 for natural
  stone, just in case a couple of tiles break on
  the 800km journey. Apart from that, we see no
  down side. Why not find out more by calling Len
  on 0413308234.

About Us

• Ten years ago Luke Johnson started working in the
  tile industry at Laws Auctions. He quickly saw
  the possibility of starting a tile division
  within the strong Laws Auction home improvement
  and building material section. This idea turned
  out to be the perfect fit, with tile sales
  growing from just 1000m2 in the first week to
  4000m2 per week by the end of the first month.
  This division grew to be the largest tile auction
  in Australia selling 13000m2 per week. During
  this phase, it became apparent to Luke that the
  Australian consumer wanted a range of high
  quality polished porcelains and other top quality
  ceramics without having to pay outlandishly high
  retail prices.
• During this period, Luke gained lots of
  experience in purchasing and selling tiles.  Then
  in 2005 Luke joined Len Franco, a very
  experienced and well known importer/wholesaler,
  in starting upTile Factory Outlet.  TFO is a
  model based on high volumes with low prices, with
  the tag line tiles at auction prices without the
  hammer. This again was exactly what the market
  sought, good quality products together with
  product information at the lowest prices, without
  the pressure and stress of an auction.
• TFO hit the market with instant success, offering
  the best range of low cost high quality
  tiles. Luke propelled TFO from a standing start
  to sales of over 3000m2 per week within just 1
  year, and currently around 15000m2 per week!
• TFO specializes in brands such as Monalisa, RAK
  ceramics and Ceramica Refin along with many
  others. Selling high volumes with very low
  margins, with customers saving up to 70 off
  retail prices.
• In 2009 Luke and Len re-located the business
  to 107 Warren Road (Cumberland Hwy),
  Smithfield, a highly visible and easy to get to
  location.
• Then in 2011, Arman Aminzadeh joined TFO and he
  quickly saw the potential and the direction of
  TFO.  With a background in business and
  management, Arman has over 10 years experience in
  the tile industry including having worked with
  some of the largest tile companies in Australia.
   Armans unique approach has helped the business
  grow dramatically.
• Lukes vision for TFO is to capture more market
  share, and supported by Len and Arman, TFO is
  fast becoming the biggest tile clearance center
  in Sydney. People come from all over Australia to
  save money and organizing freight can be as easy
  as a quick phone call.
• Luke, Len and Arman, are continuously working
  towards the same goal in providing the best
  products at unbeatable prices.  They want to keep
  expanding the range, sourcing the best products
  from around the world, and bringing them to the
  Australian marketplace at prices that consumers
  cannot ignore. They encourage consumers to shop
  around as they are confident that they will not
  find better value for money.
• TFO staff have over 100 years of combined tile
  experience, this includes colour consultants,
  interior designers, importers and salespeople
  from the industry. We accommodate a wide range of
  languages, English, Italian, German, Chinese,
  Cambodian, Thai, Laotian, Vietnamese, Kurdish and
  Persian.
• Call in today to see the extensive range of
  Polished Porcelain, Glazed Porcelain, Ceramics,
